Sounds like an awesome project!  Go for it!

And how about starting a thread with a worklog?  (If that's permitted here)  Would be awesome to witness the process :)

I wouldn't mind posting a worklog with my A1200 PPC+PCI tower project, either.  Whenever I get started, that is...  :-)

2) Lots of electronics you will need to make to interface to the LCD panel and the battery power supply

That's true.  I had plans to build one of those C64 DTV's into an old laptop I had (imagine a state-of-the-art looking C64 laptop?) but when I started investigating the monitor connections, I discovered that I needed a doctor's degree in electronics to hotwire it.  Not surprisingly, I quickly abandoned the project.

5) How crap ECS workbench looks

Objection, your honour!

I love the way the original Workbench looks.  Blue, white, black and some orange.  You recognize it miles away, as opposed to a Mac or Windows lookalike AGA WB.
