90s HP 200LX (80186 1MB RAM) + open source hardware #MNT Pocket Reform. I’m glad someone is still thinking of this form factor: very small but still usable for software development. #retrocomputing #retro #opensource #hardware

Seeing how "simple" those lapdock* PCB are (in the video below with a DP to HDMI Lontium LT8711UX chip and a RTD2556 display controller), I wonder if there's ongoing FOSS project to replicate them and allow people to put them into old laptops to reuse them (a lapdock into an old #Thinkpad shell or in a @mntmn@mastodon.social #MNT Reform Next shell would be a killer project)

*a laptop shell to which a compatible (alt-mode capable) phone connects and which then ouput its screen to the lapdock display and can be controller buy the lapdock keyboard + mouse (and sometime lapdock's touchscreen)
