A funny thing happens when you hook up an LED to a speaker so that it pulses to the beat of the music you’re playing: It looks really cool. In other words, there’s no practical purpose I can think of for cramming a sound-reactive LED inside a netbook. But LEDs don’t tend to use a lot of power, and if you’ve got the room inside your netbook, then why the heck not?

EeeUser Forum member Desert Fox cracked open his Eee PC 1000HE and placed an LED inside. You can see the light through the vent on the left side of the laptop case.

Check out the finished product in the video after the break.
