House your Raspberry Pi in a miniature TRS-80 style case

I’ve still got one! We paid a guy $100 (in 1982 dollars, whatever that’d be today) to make the lowercase conversion, increase the RAM from 4K to 16K, and bump it up from Level 1 Basic to Level 2. I think the guy was a moonlighting Tandy employee (this wasn’t far from Ft. Worth) and we dropped it off at his house.

He screwed it up where we had to press “shift” to get lowercase letters but we never did anything about it.

A couple of years ago, I set the whole thing up in my son’s bedroom, but he quickly complained about the high-pitched noise emanating from the CRT.
