+
+I want to build a cyberdeck, but isn't that just a weird cumbersome laptop... yes, that's not the point, think of it more as a weird retro inspired electronic simi functional experimental piece of art.

+![Back](back.jpg)
+
+Back will house all the electronics and when the screen is lifted it's shown, i'll add an acrylic plate, which will help guide airflow from the fan through the device.
+Will start with a Raspberry Pi, since that's what i have on hand, might change it out to a different SBC with proper NVME support instead of booting of an SD card, or USB adapter.
+
+## Ideas:
+- Screen: Ultra wide screen IPS, smaller e paper display.
+- Keyboard: Custom split ergonomic mechanical keyboard with trackball in the middle.
+- Pointing device: Rollerball mouse + thinkpad like 3 buttons.
+- Modular, expandable, with standard mounting interfaces, and electrically with ports ex. i2c expansion.
+- Internal temperature on i2c.
+- Modern retro vibe with vent slits.
+- All PCB's in the back mounted to an insert plate, to avoid having to re-print the case.
