The "Underwood No. 5"
Quite a while back, one of my friends sent me a "photoshopped" picture of an old typewriter (it looked like a Remington) fitted with a monitor, mouse, and printer (the printer had the platten and carriage attached to it). I looked to see if "true" retrofit would be possible, but, at the time I researched the possibility, Mini-ITX motherboards were not yet available.
I stored the picture in my archives and pretty much forgot about it. After I had completed an Apple IIe retrofit, I sent a picture of it to my friends. One of them sent a link to this website.
I looked through all of the unusual mods and came across a mantle clock mod. The clock was from the 20s or 30s and it got me thinking about the possibility of doing a typewriter mod. I pulled the picture out of my archives and did some measurements. It would work.

Some people either have too much time on their hands or are really into these things.
There was this guy featured on TV before who used a model aircraft carrier (USS Enterprise I think). No surprise to find the same project here: http://www.mini-itx.com/projects/carrier/Last edited by the_wildthing; September 1st, 2004 at 06:17 PM.
