Looks very cool, to bad about the price. Its based on a Dell AT101W - Black Alps.

It was built on only a dell? I mean, the mods are huge and look cool. But even if I were into that kinda money I'd be wanting something a bit better under the hood.

ALPS easy to mod and have many more options for customization than a buckling spring board which most steampunks seem to be based on.
