Custom Card Board Computer

well, it's a start, i am thinking about getting a micro atx, like the smallest mb i can find, and stick it in there, with a external hd maybe or a laptop hd or something :)

Nice. You might want to look at Yoshi's cardboard pc for some ideas.

You could hardly start at a better place than mini-ITX.com (http://www.mini-itx.com/) (where, incidentally, they've got a new SE/30 mod that out-cools my own).

Or why not something smaller, (http://computers.kontron.com/products/pdproductdetail.cfm?keyProduct=32980&kps=1081&kp=75) or even smaller than that? (http://www.compulab.co.il/586core.htm)

In days long gone, I worked on docs for the AMD Elan MCUs. Nifty little suckers. Stanford had one running a little matchbox-sized web server (http://wearables.stanford.edu/) for the longest time, but the link isn't responding now. :(

If you want a reg lookin comp taht is small go with a nano atz 12cm x12cm its small. Oh yea and i think since this is a full case build this post should be in work logs since your not done.

the wearables site morphed into this (http://www.tiqit.com/), I think they decided to start a company around the idea. You used to be able to buy one from the site, but not any longer from what I can tell. Been that way since a couple years ago.

(sorry for the threadjack)

elitecloud, you might try looking for a better way to mount the PSU to give a bit more room for a larger board.

Found a copy of the site at web.archive.org (http://web.archive.org/web/20000618021622/http://wearables.stanford.edu/hardware.html#webserver). Same page shows their matchbox PC. Your case is too big!

Unfortunate that tiqit doesn't sell the boards anymore, but there seem to be several tiny single-board PC options out there.
