An enterprising Chinese man has come up with a solution for gadget-crazy people who desperately want Apple's popular iPad tablet computer but cannot afford it - DIY.
In a 20-minute video posted on Youku - the Chinese YouTube equivalent - Liu Xinying demonstrates how to assemble an iPad look-a-like using computer parts, a touch screen and a case with a keypad, to the sound of metal music.
At the end of the video dubbed "DIY IPAD 3", the IT whizz shows off the finished version - an apparently functional tablet computer that looks like a thick iPad but runs on Windows, an operating system made by rival Microsoft.
News of Liu's apparent feat spread on several foreign and Chinese technology websites, as well as on the nation's Twitter-like Weibo service.
