hi all,

I finished making a Black & White MacBook out of three different MacBooks.
I thought I'd share this.

See the video for the result:

Wow. Looks really nice - where did you find such "good looking" parts?

Though if I were you I would've made the bottom all black - the white MB's catch scratches like a mother... :)

Great job.

P.S. May I one day (when I have too much money too spend) order one from you?:)

Thanks! The parts of the broken MacBooks actually were in good condition! So it was not too hard to build a good looking model without any damage.

The bottom case is all black with the exception of a white MacBook battery.


One neat little detail: The logic board was from a white MacBook that has been placed in a black MacBook bottom case. The ports (USB etc) have the white finish which looks really cool with the black casing. A small but nice detail!
