If you need something looking like a vintage computer, do some 3D printing, and put a Retropie or other boards in it. -- Andreas My random toughts and comments https://news-commentaries.blogspot.com/ --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05 * Origin: Agency HUB, Dunedin - New Zealand | Fido<>Usenet Gateway (3:770/3) .
