Re: Coming soon - Acorn Atom replica
I'd like one but with no keyboard and no case (as they are equally as rare as hens teeth) I don't think I'll be making one soon.
Does this flavour include the colour support on the board?

Re: Coming soon - Acorn Atom replica
That board is the original rev5 style circuit board but with modern buffer chips.
Apparently a standard colour board will fit.

If it ain't broke, test it to Destruction.

Re: Coming soon - Acorn Atom replica
I don't sleep more than 6 hours most nights, sometimes less...
I also cycle 8 miles most mornings, have karate training twice a week and work full time :)
Luckily I work from home 4 days a week (Sometimes 5 days a week), so I benefit from being able to do stuff at lunchtimes or if I have a break and I don't have to travel most days so when I finish I'm home. It helps a lot :)
