> I built a cyberdeck

Have you written about this anywhere? If not, I’d love to see a ShowHN post about your project and I bet I’m not the only one.

What’s your background? I ask because I really want something like a TRS-80 Model 100. Is interfacing a low end (power efficient) board to an LCD or eInk display something an electronics neophyte could reasonably take on?

A lot of homemade slab computers seem to rely on Raspberry Pi boards but those draw quite a lot of power and tend to run Linux. It’s not a combination that I’m going to be able to run for weeks at a time on 4 AA batteries (one of my goals).

When building your cyberdeck, were there any resources in particular that you found helpful?
