Just gonna ask here coz I'm too lazy.
How hard would it be to repurpose one of these cheap $200 macbook clone things with intel atoms to take an eoma68 card instead? I can already imagine the rockchip one in it :)

ok so i'm almost ready to send the laptop pcb1 and pcb4 off for
prototyping, this gets about 20% the way towards getting the laptop
done, but also is planned to be the basis of a new housing (an
all-in-one PC) where sharing the exact same main PCB as in the laptop
will cut costs of production of both.

mark (van de borre): about the casework i've sent the DXF files off to
a china prototyping company just so i can get something quickly. i
don't expect them to be perfect first time, and to have do do another
iteration. i'll want to do one last full systems test then the
microdsktop v1.7 including casework can go into production. i haven't
worked out if i have to do 2,000 of the corner pieces as 3D-printed or
to get them injection-molded, at 2,000 pieces it *might* be worth
doing as injection-molding.

btw if anyone would like to see the gerber files for the three latest
pcbs, they're here:
