It is cool... Look a bit closer. It isn't in a DK cabinet, it's in a reproduction of a DK cabinet, and it's not much bigger than a normal tower case. Look at the pic of the power supply and motherboard in the back. The motherboard is half the size of the machine.

I withdraw my sarcasm. Either way it is pretty cool, but either way it has already been done before.

So which name do you think is the real one? Martin Smith or Guido - Anchovy?

Both sound fishy to me ;)

Ok.... so maybe I'm a little slow.... but how did he get the laptop monitor to work with a PC video card..?

I've been trying to find out how to pull this little trick off (successfully) for months...

Somebody speak to me.... point this way-ward soul towards the path of  freedom !

Maybe the laptop supports video in and they took the vga to RCA or from RCA out (video card) to video in (rca on laptop)....

Here's a not-so-cheap but easy way of doing it:
