I built this modular cyberdeck instead of buying a new laptop.
It is built around a Raspberry Pi, has a sliding screen, full depth mechanical keyboard, battery power, a trackball, and swappable modules so I can use it in the workshop for blueprints, FreeCAD, browsing, and whatever else I need.
It is not finished yet, but it already feels like a real tool that is upgradeable, repairable and actually mine.
