Hello
 Its my first instructable. where i'll try to explain show you how u can make a cheap ALL IN ONE PC.

Though its not veryyyyyy cheap but cheaper than Orignal product

OKzzz my first image is a concept image to explain what i want to do.
  Basically i want to implant my eeepc 901 into my tft monitor :)

we need few products for this project.
1- eeepc or any net book (smaller ver. are easy to work with. for buying one cheap search for the item as a damaged one like no lcd working and no keyboard working or broken case. but fine from inside ;))
2- a monitor of ur choice. (though i was lucky to find one very cheap and its looks are like one of the all in one pc as well. try too look around in charity shops or cash converter typ shops)
3- few tools like soldring iron, cutter, hot glue gun, etc...
4- important thing ur brain and imaginations :D; which will make this product more verstile

Problems..... and Solutions

the biggest problem i got with the power button caz its on motherboard. i tried to search for a better solution but :( i had to use my soldring ion at the end.. i attached a push button with the mainboard one and checked... it worked fine for me :)
