WOOHOO! it's alive (kinda)I have done my first case mod ever! I call it the MacTablet100 made from the ever-vigilant guts of my PowreBook 100... here's my marketing pitch The MacTablet Features a brilliant design, which, when unfolded doubles as a desktop computer, and when folded, will work as a tabled form portable computer. With a whopping 6 MBs of RAM, and a staggering 20MB Hard Disk, the MacTablet 100 will hold all your great spur of the moment ideas.
A speedy 8 MHz Motorola 68000m processor will make the MacTablet the pinnacle of mobile computing, with the raw power needed to run the latest versions of System 7.0 Beta.
Whether you are an artist who wants to be in a more natural setting, painting on your computer in a more natural way, or you are in college or a business meeting taking notes quickly and easily. Stay tuned for other ones... i hope to get "MacTablet 5300" or something similar. Official 68k videographer |

Mmm sounds very interesting.....I wonder if Apple have thought of that. I think you're onto a winner..... I'd buy it! How much would it cost? MacTablet.co.uk |

I like the idea too...I don't knwo if apple has thought of it, but in OSX.2 there's a thing called "ink" works for tablets to recoghize handwriting...  I don't know how much an apple would cost, but from me... well I probably wouldn't sell it.... Official 68k videographer

WhatEVER!Ink, Inkwell, Wacom-MoneyMaker... either way it's a pretty cool thingy! I just hope that there's enough kindness in OSX's heart that somehow I'll get the USB webcam working on here... (or enough kindness in PAF's heart to let me unpack it...) Official 68k videographer
