Made the mounting plate I mentioned yesterday, so I didn't have to hold the heatsink on with my finger. I'm not sure what I'd do without all the M2 nuts and screws I bought in Japan.

Got MacOS X installed on it without a hitch, using an external DVD drive. The only problem now is that it always thinks the Internal LCD screen is there, even when it isn't. And turning on mirroring if the internal screen /isn't/ actually attached makes everything go weird.

I might have to look into somehow doing the reverse of "Screen Spanning Doctor" or something.

If you use the Mac as an xterm, you can tie all your apps to one screen.

(note - when using Mac as xterm, fullscreen mode doesn't work in Leopard, but it does in Tiger)

I actually managed to find the reed switch to trick it into being in clamshell mode, so problem solved :)
