    A custom made M1 MacBook with touchscreen and many ports? (video)

    I thought it may be interesting to share a video from a guy I follow, who managed to fit the internals of a MacBook Air into the body of a Windows laptop with touch screen. This is more a proof of concept than a perfectly usable device, but it works (including the touch screen) and made me think...

    MP 1,1-5,1 What if... the community designed an updated CPU tray for cMP 5,1?

    OK, so this is a crazy, off the wall idea... but what if it was possible to design and implement a replacement PCB that would fit the standard CPU tray and heat sink of a classic Mac Pro 5,1?
