campaign started
but just recently he did a whole write up and it is a very good one
lots of details
way more heat than the project i have in mind

haha
it is close though
and the craftmanship is high and that is satisfying
wonder how the hardware available for that project has changed
i know laptops with the same model number often have different parts
fwiw the main point of the laptop is that the hardware is open
eliminates backdoors by tla agencies but not to say that there
are no backdoors anyway

Seems counter productive, thin typically is better for actual use. In
a wooden case simply an oddity that hinders the user.

Does not employ 'Golden ratio' proportional dimensions, not
aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
