And my present laptop, fully equipped with a screen :D (the screen is white, notice the keyboard) And I have a whole new setup in my new room :D I'm only 14, but hey I sure do know how to fix up a computer for under $250AUD (thats how much the computer cost me.)

MattyK, how did you attach a monitor to the MB? What kind of cable did you buy or what did you wire it into? Did you have to cut cables?

As its a stock MB with no Monitor.

a Mini DVI - DVI or VGA I Guess, like every other person who has a monitor plugged into theyre MB. :p

Cool Idea though, and i do want to do this with a MacBook Pro, find one with a Broken Screen, remove it, and you have an awesome PC in a Keyboard, and it has a battery incase the power is pulled!

Yeah, I bought a mini DVI to VGA adapter from the apple store for about $25AUD.

^^ Awesome. I should have taken some photos of my unboxing - it came in a plain brown box that said "Apple Certified Refurbished Product" on the side, but it would have been cool.

Hindsight, eh?

Refurb is the way to go. They are already knocking off $300 for refurb MBP.

I have a few photos of the day i got my iPhone. Of course i took the pictures with my iPhone so they are not great. I still think that that box looks sick.

I also like the fact that the Macbook line boxes are white now, not that it really matters.

When was that iPhone purchased? Is that the new box it comes with? My box was black and I bought mine in June of 08'.
