i think the wii laptop is ugly, clunky and useless, that tiny screen is just the opposite of what the wii is about.

a better idea would be a wii 5.25" drive for the pc, put all the ports in another drive bay, and pass the videothrough a video capturing card, then attach your sensor bar to the monitor and thats it, beautiful

a 7" screen isn't that tiny, it's what most portable dvd players have, and the Wii is only 480p, just like a dvd. And it still has the video out so you can hook it up to a bigger screen whenever one is available.

looks like the mainboard is more than 5.25" wide, so your idea simply can't work.
