Linux-Powered Spectrum Takes Casemodding To The Next Level
,----[ Quote ]
| Hot on the heels of the ZX81 casemod comes this ZX Spectrum one. The whole
| thing is made possible by the BeagleBoard, a diminuitive ARM-powered single
| board computer that runs Linux from an SD card.

Spectrum ZX81 case-modded into Ubuntu PC
,----[ Quote ]
| This mod by Flickr user Unravelled smashes an entire Ubuntu PC into the
| chassis beneath the membrane keyboard of an old Spectrum ZX81, thanks to a
| wonderfully diminuitive VIA EPIA Pico-ITX motherboard. There's even four USB
| ports, video out and audio connectors. It makes me realize, though, that what
| I really want is for someone to take a ZX81, a Pico motherboard and add a
| screen, transforming the Spectrum in actuality into what it always has
| appeared to me to be: the world's first UMPC.
