900HA turned into the Tablet PC

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for any damage to your EEE PC if you attempt to do this mod. The thread is posted for the information purposes only.

My 900HA has been modified into the Tablet PC.

Very labor-intensive, plastic is hard to cut even with the dremel tool.

Originally I was going to turn my 900A into the Tablet, but then I realized 900HA would be much better. 320GB vs 4GB HDD.

So the combo consists of the parts from 900A white and 900HA black.

I was surprised to find out the inverter and screen from 900A would NOT work on 900HA.

There is an extra screw on the 900HA in the HDD compartment which you need to unscrew. It does not exist on 701 or 900A.  Just be careful when removing parts.

I like black and white.

Thanks!

In fact doing this mod for 900x is easier than 701. The cable is longer, you don't need to twist it.

One tip: Ctrl-Alt-DownArrow will flip the screen horisontally 180 degrees, Ctrl-Alt-UpArrow will turn it back. I found it very useful with this mod, I can control webcam/mic/stand position. Also can be used on your friend's (or enemies) computers for a few minutes of amusement.
