What if the modular computing evangelists at Framework decided to make a handheld? YouTuber Pitstoptech has largely answered this question by building a “fully upgradeable gaming handheld” around one of Framework’s upgradable motherboards.
Pitstoptech intends to prepare and sell handheld DIY kits “soon,” based on the prototype design you see in the pictures / video.
Nice way to re-use an old board instead it going to landfil!
Framework’s already been encouraging this, they released some designs for a Mini-PC when they released the first upgraded board kit. I think it’s an awesome use case for old laptop parts.
There’re some great videos on how to turn your old notebook into a beautiful desk PC.
