Just making replacement parts from existing is tough work, either you'd have to: Make moulds Design from scratch - only really do-able for the libretto, even then that's a complex structure 3d scan I've never seen the original CAD data floating about online, which you'd need to create replacement …

A new motherboard for Sony Vaio P gen2 with modern specs would be amazing. Or new drivers for the GMA500.

Had my mITX Socket 7 on the bench today, fixing a failed D: partition. I knew it was a bad idea using a 160GB HD, but it was all I had. Used SeaTools to lock it down to 128GB total, so hopefully that helps. Also swapped out the passive-cooled Pentium 90 for a Pentium 200. I keep flip-flopping on …
