Hope this is okay to post here. Seems applicable to me!
What machine is it?
It use to be a Smith Corona PWP 9000 LT DS Word Processor. Now its a laptop powered by an Orange Pi 5.
Did you replace the screen or just gut it and get the old screen to work with the pi?
Wow thats super cool! Did you shove a Keychron K6 into it as the keyboard?
Love that screen
This reminds me of the “luggable” Commodore 64 a friend had when I was in high school. I remember seeing him play red baron on it.
Thanks for sharing this. Very interesting.
i always like the idea of a contemporary “portable desktop” that’s not just a giant laptop and OPs device goes into that direction, formfactorwise.
basically like one of those 80s “laptops” that came as a box with a flip-out display and a keyboard attached. of course more modern: bigger, better screens for working on a graphical interface, wireless peripherals, maybe flatter, like a pizzabox. the ups to a traditional laptop would be better cooling and room fur upgrades. many people have laptops and they sit on a desk forever, maybe moved once a month.
