Home made all-in-one?

Has anyone here ever attempted to make their own all-in-one PC? What I have in mind is someone building laptop components into an LCD panel. I've seen people mount LCD panels on their PC cases before, but I don't know if I've seen someone do the opposite. It would be a fun thing to try. Maybe I'll invest in a Dremel and give it a try myself someday...

Anyways, I'm wondering if anyone has seen someone else do it. I'd like to see how it was done and how it turned out.

Have a look here my Friend http://steampunkworkshop.com/victorian-all-one-pc

That's pretty slick. I would like to attempt something like that at some point but... maybe without the Victorian era look. Is there some way to get the monitor and PC to run off the same power supply or same power cable, or would that be more trouble than it's worth?

Woah! That computer is immense!

You could just cable tie 2 wires together and have them split at the last second where you can't see it. Shouldn't be any disadvantage then.

Will U Design did something sort of what you're thinking of:
