Some progress on my retro sleeper build. Found an old, broken 286 compaq laptop that had the same vibes as my old 386 laptop I had as a young person. I've gutted it, converted the old keyboard to USB, and replaced the dead screen with an LCD from a 1st gen ipad running on an HDMI adapter.

The motherboard is a pi5 with an nvme hat, powered by the UPS for an alarm system. A ways to go yet, but the retrobox is starting to resemble a completable project!
