Video: EeePC modded into a WalleeePC
We know how it is -- you were an early adopter of the netbook craze sweeping every nation from Austria to Australia, but now that 11-inches is looking like the new de facto standard, your old 7-incher just isn't cutting the mustard anymore. So what do you do? You mod that sucker into a kitchen cabinet door, of course. You'll need a 7-inch USB touchscreen to layer atop an EeePC 701, along with a few other bits and bobs, but the most important thing to remember is a spectacularly loony soundtrack. Or so the video after the break seems to instruct us.

"...but now that 11-inches is looking like the new de facto standard, your old 7-incher just isn't cutting the mustard anymore"..lolwhat?
@OneLove
Yea, I thought the same thing.
The music, IT'S SO CREEPY !
Obviously, you're not a golfer German.
And the comment system doesn't like HTML tags. :(
It's from "The Best of the Singing Eunuchs" album.
In no relation to Wall-E?
Thats what i thought, the i realised it was a play on words on the eeepc brand, lol
*then
I was VERY dissappointed. Call me when it looks like this:

that music...
can't get it out of my head... what are they saying?
Steve Jobs is the devil..
What?? It said the same thing in "Stairway to Heaven"
Oh nevermind *pouts*
I can't get it out of my head either. Please make it stop.
Lol@ whole video, brilliant in every way! esp the ending picture.... hahaha
"Walleee" ? Nice one Vlad. I see what you did there...
The soundtrack is from a show called Dr. Snuggles (used to watch it when I was a kid, and yes, I find it very creepy).

This is the English version of it!

It's a bit hard to hear what they're singing but the song is suiting for this video as Dr. Snuggles is very in to gadgets. Shame on picking the name though :P
"Doctor Snuggles"
That combined with the music makes me think of PeeWee mixed with Michael Jackson.
(Yes, I know, and I don't care.)
What a wasted of an eeepc. Who in their right mind is going to stand up, leaning over the counter for any amount of time to use this when you would be more comfortable sitting. If were there in the first place you would be preoccupied with cooking no less.
KInda wanna make sure that burner is off an' cooled before you lean over for any length of time... or you'll find your 7"er flambe'd...
Actually, these would be PERFECT for a whole house audio system. You could put one of these in the wall and use it for a 7" touchscreen music controller, and it would cost about the same amount as actually buying a touchscreen whole-house-audio controller, but have a bigger screen and have MANY more purposes. You could even use if for a recipe holder.
*Raises Hand*
This will be good for finding recipes, controlling music, & controlling lighting. I just wish he would have went with the 11incher.
I had an idea to make something like this for a twitter bulletin board for my student flat, to keep up with what my housemates were doing. But then I realized I'm a friendless nerd with no-one to live with an no money ... oh I'm so lonely...
Better yet... Just buy Asus eeeBox, small touch screen. Build both into wall. Then, build keyboard shelf that flips down when required.
Yeah...I don't think 7" is out of date. I think anything larger than a 10 is a laptop, not a netbook, regardless of price. I still want a 7-8" because they're, you know, compact. I have a full size laptop for other stuff.
Tards.
FFS, it is "pass muster" not cut the mustard, pass the mustard, or any other tumeric-based butchering of the original military saying. Please understand the phrase before looking like a fool.
