Commadore 64 Mac
When I was researching cool mods sprouting from the modular Framework Laptop, I came across the YouTube channel Elevated System Christopher “CJ” Peet, who used a Framework mainboard and stuffed it inside a mechanical keyboard chassis. It was a modern take on the Commodore 64, something Apple has seemingly also considered.
Filed in 2020, a patent describes a desktop computer disguised as a keyboard. In the patent, Apple notes how carrying around a desktop “can be inconvenient, awkward, and difficult, especially when frequently repeated.” I think we all agree. The solution? Turn your keyboard into a computer by fitting in a power supply, USB-C port, and all the chips and whatnot needed to make the thing run. Raspberry Pi’s already done it, after all.
