Wait.... how did MSDN get your story without interviewing you, ben?
Did you get interviewed? They'll probably take your idea. Also, in OXM magazine- your Xbox 360 laptop....did you send that in or were you asked if it was OK by their moderators to show that after they saw it on benheck.com?

my definition of hackaday: Leeches that take something cool someone else did, and get the entire mainstream to bash their server as if they had virtual baseball bats...

Wow, sweet! Moving up in the world, Ben! After all, it was a cool mod. Ever thought of patenting the one-handed 360 controller if it hasn't been already?

And by the way, I thought it was really admirable that you made it for one of our injured men in arms fighting for our country, even if it was a commission job! :wink:
