I would go for the Laptop mobo you sugested, one with HDMI (VGA will prob be there as well), and full sized K/board using one of the USB ports,internal DVDrom, ect the list is infinite,
Please just do not do the` Fairy Lights` like some modders do ![]() Good Luck |

![]() Maybe you are referring to the Catweasel Mk4 but it doesn't help you for running directly the game since emulators require a disk image format, however. You could put the adf on a HD floppy and run from it. For the disk solution, you can still use CF/SD card as hard disk via a 3.5' --> 2.5' plug. But it is much more sense to put a Raspberry Pi or similar on it than a full motherboard, imho. |

If you must have something more powerfull than a Pi then look for a Thin-ITX, low-profile board.
Or Check out Odroid! Basically a quad-core pc board that runs linux, is really small and will fit anywhere. Friend of mine has one and loves it ![]() http://www.hardkernel.com/main/produ...=G137510300620 Combine that with a Keyrah and your set! You could even get away from cutting an amiga case up, so if you get bored of it all you can put a proper amiga back into it ![]() |

I'm thinking of putting a HP SFF (Small form factor) inside an A2000 case. The whole machine will fit, but I do not want to cut the case, so I was thinking of getting extenders from the ports on the HP SFF to the back of the amiga.
Anyone knows of a kit or seperate cables? Network, VGA, Audio & USB should be enough.. For example, male VGA contact into computer, going to a female in a bracket. |
