This would be perfect think to spin off your own machines. Imagine downloading a Kicad files for motherboard, adding your own stuff, sending off to JLCPCB or similar for assembly and then stuffing into the laptop shell.
- nrp 6y agoThat's the goal! We will actually be publishing KiCad and OpenSCAD-based reference designs for the Expansion Cards for folks to be able to make their own. The mainboard is a bit more challenging, but we do want to enable an ecosystem around that as well.
- baybal2 6y agoKiCAD is not the calibre of an EDA you would use to make PC motherboard.
- varispeed 6y agoThat depends on the frequency I guess and how integrated the chips of your choosing are. If you don't go to idk 1GHz area, then things can be forgiving. Shame that the things like Altium are still out of hobbyist reach.
