Love it! Thank youðY(TM) !

BTW we had to spend a lot of money on tool and dye to push aluminum directly through our N.A. made extruders. The we CNC the holes ourselves anodize and coat. Not sure how much more custom it gets then aluminum extrusion made from tools designed specifically for our vectors.

So many permutations. One user designed a switch to switch between an internal Ryzen or Pi depending on the battery consumption and CPU needs. You can fit both in there....

Agreed!

Linux drivers are so fun to figure out...no? ðY£ðY£ðY£ Seriously though as people upload their rigs/configs/drivers we will share to our regiatry and it should get easy eventually.

Fair. But we can source you those parts cheaper by bulk ordering. Also as a first PC built, may as well make it a portable right ? ;-) We also plan to have a big registry/freeware community market for cool new applications, connectors, wiring etc...could be fun even for pros; especially music, ham and software guys...our original target market (shifted based on response).

Actually, it is not an advertisement it is just honest reporting. Likely, because the writer thinks we did something cool. I'm sorry you don't. FYI if it wasn't for this article, we would not have hit our target and 3 guys dream will have been flushed down the toilet. We should be praising this site for not taking big box bribery to quiet the small entrepreneur. I have no money to pay or bribe anyone for advertising or other. You know who does? Dell. LG. Acer. Slashdot is one of the last safe havens for tech reporting availability, free of corruption. They literally just saved my business and made my dream happen. I think that's the opposite of your inference.

Now YOU get it. These are all universal D-MOUNT type connectors. You can get a $2 Keystone to fit on any of them. It is the opposite of what you infer. We built this to make Neutrik/Midi/RCA/1/4" super easy to jack in. THAT is the point, not this Cyberdeck stuff the market seems to be labelling us as.

A custom enclosure is exactly what it is. We didn't coin the term cyberdeck, not in general and motni reference to our product. Our model is called the Cyberpunk that's the only link. It's more of a Streaming Deck than a Cyberdeck. This was not meant for a Cyborg apocalypse lol, it was mean because planned obsolescence and custom laptop parts are a pain and wasteful. This thing will last and uses all standard parts and connectors.

1920 x 480. Do you remember 640 x 480. Ya it's three of those, crystal clear, capacitive touch. That's $70 US in parts with the integrated sound, HDMI and digitizer. $65 because we are ordering 1000 to start.

Most Kickstarter campaigns are backed heavily by people that have used Kickstarter before. 35% of our orders came from consumers that LOVE Kickstarter and have bought 5 or more Kickstarter products in the past. Would you prefer everyone just shop at Walmart? That small ideas never come to light? Only the rich should get richer?

Like any merchandise ever buyers should beware. Not only is READY! NOT A SCAM the owners are not even making money on the project (margin is 1.5%). The designs are free and published. Everything can be sourced independently or 3D printed. I guarantee you that not only will READY! Ship every unit on time, we will likely exceed expectations. I can understand your frustration with previous experiences.

Cyberdeck is not our term.

Not our term. The market's. Also the guys at VIRTCON and Cyberdeck.cafe last night asked us to speak and I think they would disagree. It is not a traditional cyberdeck. However you are wrong.
