>>Wouldn't a wedge case have a keyboard and slots/holders for drives etc included?
How would you do that, TheDaddy?

You'll have to wait and see... :-)

That innocent looking smiley face is hiding something, I just know it.

A while back there was somebody on AWN who claimed to be designing a new "wedge" case. I believe they called it the "Amiga Fantasy" case. They seem to have gotten pretty far, like far enough to be choosing from a couple of final layouts to send to production, they had a website and all set up too. I think their moniker was Amigamac or something along those lines, haven't seen them posting in months.

Here's the info.

And a wedge isn't ugly?
Sure, I liked the way that the A500 and 1200 looked -pretty cool in those days - but in the last 15 years or so I've never seen any (new) wedge computer case that didn't make me want to throw up instantly.

Like this one:

@McVenco

I agree that is an ugly computer.  I look forward to seeing what The Daddy comes up with.

Why would anyone want to attach a motherboard to a keyboard, it makes the keyboard too heavy and means that you need to be wired to the monitor.  Doesn't really make any sense in the 21st Century.  




Now a nice case that attaches itself to the back of a monitor has potential...

What we\'re witnessing is the sad, lonely crowing of that last, doomed cock.
