Introduction to Cyberdecks
- π The term "cyberdeck" was originally coined by William Gibson in his 1984 novel Neuromancer, referring to an artisan-crafted computer.
- π€ The creator misses the diverse designs of computers from the 90s and 2000s and wants to build something unique and cool.
- π» The goal is to create a custom cyberdeck with a Windows operating system, decent performance, solid input/output options, and a cyberpunk aesthetic.
Hardware Selection

- π A LattePanda was also considered, but it was too expensive.
- π The Framework laptop motherboard was chosen for its good performance, modular IO system, and availability of individual parts.
