And this sort of thing is interesting, fascinating and to some inspiring. I haven't seen it 'done a million times over' either.
Also if you will note that some of them date back to September 20, 2002, so yes- this is old news.
Mini-ITX boards can be pretty much retrofitted into anything- all you need is a little computer engineering knowledge, some money for your project, and a dremel.
I have one in an NES and another one in a PS2 case.
The ultimate goal of any of my modding projects is to preserve the original integrity of the unit- so to the untrained eye it looks just like its actual system. Which means the CD drive comes out of the NES cartridge slot and the PS2 optical drive slot respectively.
The hardest part with projects like these is overheating and PSU placement. Fortunately they make PSUs for ITX boards that are very similar to laptop ones- with an external transformer. (which really helps)
It's still interesting to those of us who didn't know all that though
