Hi :)
2 month ago a friend of me gives me a netbook an EEEpc like computer with his HDD and the HDD port broken !! The only way to use it was to put a bootable usb key like Live Ubuntu, so after 1 week of search i found Livemamecab, Wahcade runing live with ubuntu, and here i go !! Why not make a bartop with it !!
So this is the final result, hope you will love it !!
Before i forget the stick comes from a pacman plugtv !! And the artwork comes from internet, i only did the bartop woodwork and the layout for Wahcade

Well done! The space invader with the glowing eyes (admin buttons?) are a nice touch. The orange painted boarder is a nice solution in lieu of t-molding as well and helps tie it all together. Good job. :applaud:

Thx :)
The space invader's eyes are just Led, and have no fonction !! But it's a great great idea !!
For the admin buttons, credits, pause and menu i use the monitor's buttons that you can see in the 1st picture like and the power button of the monitor power up the computer.
For the boarder it's actually made with orange tape, cause i really don't know what kind of paint i have to use to have the same result :-\ If anyone can help me with this, you'll make my day :)
I have 1st try red tape but yes the orange one make it better :)
Thx anyway :angel:
