    Imagine having both your Xbox One and your Xbox 360 modded into one portable laptop, one modder known as Ed Zarick has created exactly that, a hybrid of both consoles modded into one convenient laptop, known as the Xbook Duo.

    This is one in a series of console laptop mods created by Zarick who has also created the Xbook One which is an Xbox One in a laptop, and the Playbook 4 which is a Playstation 4 laptop. There are other latop mods out there, this isn't a new concept by any stretch of the imagination, but this is however the first dual console laptop mod.

    Before you start waving fists full of cash at the creator, this is a prototype build, a proof of concept and right now he doesn't plan of selling. Zarick boasts that this is the first backwards compatible Xbook! "The first dual game system laptop. The XBOOK DUO has both a XBOX 360 and a XBOX ONE installed on the inside. This allows you to have a XBOOK that can play any XBOX game! Both 360 and ONE! Finally a Backwards compatible XBOOK!"

    If you really wanted one of these Xbook Duos, you can actually make your own thanks to the creator making a 'How To Guide'. This 30 minute guide will walk you through the basics of creating your own dual console laptop.

    Inside of the Xbook Duo is nothing short of amazing, with the Xbox 360 sat on the lower left of the laptop case, while the Xbox One is sat on the upper right. Both consoles share the Xbox One power brick, so this lappy only needs one power cord. The downside is that the power brick can only power one motherboard at a time , so its necessary to power down one console in order to power up the other.

    Zarick does sell Xbook Ones which is purely an Xbox One laptop mod for a mere $1,095 as long as you provide the donor Xbox One. You can however buy a ready made Xbook One for $1,395 without the Kinect sensor and $1,495 with the Kinect add-on.

    You can check out Ed's amazing mods over on his blog. What do you think of the Xbook Duo, worth it or just a gimmick?
