    I'm very curious what the various switchgear will do, and the speedometer...

    While people can argue about the aesthetics, (as with any other build). No-one can complain about the quality. Awesome work and mind numbing attention to detail. :thumb:

    Holy Moses, this just keeps getting better. The amount of work you have put in and the quality is amazing. Have you made all of the PCB's yourself too? They bring a whole new level of quality to the build. Huge respect to you!

    The speedometer will show the CPU load. About other I'll write later :)

    Thanks!

    :hip:

    These are the original retro parts :)

    Thanks, with what ? :)

    I don't plan it in the near future :D


    Simple PCBs I do myself. PCBs with microcontrollers and firmware are made by comrade ALS

    Thanks :)

    The switch has 2 positions. In the first one the button works as a power button. In the second one the button does not work. The presence of the key is an important element of visual style and also a good protection from little children who want to press everything :)

    Outstanding work. If I can offer constructive crit: I almost wrote 'no vandal switches' as a joke because I thought you wouldn't use them, then I scrolled down and there it was! I'm not sure it matches the rest aesthetically.

    Came here 'mildly interested' in an update, now absolutely hooked. How does the key look for that key switch, if I may ask this early in the reveal?
