Hope this is okay to post here. Seems applicable to me!
Did you replace the screen or just gut it and get the old screen to work with the pi?
I replaced the screen with a bigger one. The original would not have been compatible.

It use to be a Smith Corona PWP 9000 LT DS Word Processor. Now its a laptop powered by an Orange Pi 5.
This is very, very cool!
Wow thats super cool! Did you shove a Keychron K6 into it as the keyboard?
I did
That’s what I am wondering as well. No orange RGB key, but that’s an easy swap.
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.
How would you describe this portable desktop? It seems interesting.
Awesome! What are you gonna do with it? I’m thinking it’d be cool if you were able to wire sens9rs etc into ports on the back.
Phrasing. Cool though.
Fantastic build, looks awesome.
Fuckin dope, what a beautiful object! Thanks so much for sharing! Is the the orange pi a RiskV board?
