Actually useful LED lights installed on Eee
Posted on July 7, 2009 | No Comments
Do you know the one thing that I absolutely love about my BlackBerry? The little LED indicator light. That single light informs me when I have a new message, if a call is coming in, if Bluetooth is turned on, and a whole lot more. So why isn't there such a light on computers? One modder answered that question by installed a three-color LED light on his Eee PC with a very similar functionality.
Some hardware is just dear to a geeks heart that they can't let it just die. Take for example the original NES system. Some enthusiasts take modding them to a whole new level. I mean, I like to play Mario Bros. as much as the next guy, but this is getting extreme. 
When I interviewed modder extraordinaire Ben Heckendorn a couple of months ago, he mentioned that he'd been working on building a pinball machine from the ground up and that it'd be called "Bill Paxton Pinball" when all is said and done. While it's not quite together yet, Heckendorn has made some serious progress on the actual cabinet itself, which now includes photos of Paxton in various movie and TV roles such as Twister, Big Love, and True Lies.
