Captain KRM,

I thought you couldn't use the newer, slimer PS2 because it doesn't have shock protection. I was going to do an overhead setup like Lara was describing, but after I heard about the new PS2 I terminated the project. Maybe some info on what to do here? I heard the Xbox has shock protection but I don't want that bulky crap in the car.

What do you mean by "shock protection". I've modded, and gutted numerous xboxes. I'm not sure what you mean. The xbox has a rubber "condom" like thing wrapped around the hard drive, where the corners are solid rubber. But other than that, I don't see anything else which could be "shock protection". But the ps2 doesn't even have a hard drive, so thats not even needed. Besides I've seen xboxes with "aftermarket" hard drives (rubber jacket doesn't fit) accidentally dropped down a set of stairs and still power on fine.

The only other thing I can think of is that the xbox has plastic "columns" on each corner, its what the mains screws holding the unit together is threaded through. I don't know if the ps2 has this either, but if the housing is held together by a screw on each corner, chances are it does, and that applies to the slim line as well.

Basically no different than half of everyone else's, but hey, I've got mine too. Xenarc 7" TS molded in by me. I guess my screen border intact is about my only difference. I like it, though. It'll be black as soon as I get bored enough again.
