Well it’s very cute and small and perfect for that, but it has taken me 5 minutes to say nope to the OS. Lubuntu here we come. #AcerAspireOne #WriterDeck

Ok, I can’t seem to land on what I want for my writer deck, but this seems to tick all the boxes. The Thinkpad is just too chunky to be easily portable, so I needed something small, light, no distractions, simple and an unbloated OS. This little 10inch ultra portable netbook seems to fit the bill. And for the princely sum of £35 it is now mine. Might need to buy a new battery for it at some stage but it’s not a great deal of money to take a punt on. #WriterDeck #NetBook

Works well and very speedy as you’d expect. No browser, no email, no WiFi - just Office XP (thanks to the Internet Archive) which I’ll use for writing. #WindowsXP #WriterDeck #Thinkpad

The build script for writerdeckOS v2.0 can be found here: https://github.com/tinkersec/writerdeckOS While I am no longer supporting this project (I can't address bug issues or help with installation any longer), folks are welcome to use the code as is or fork it and run with the project. If anyone wants to build out version 2.0 and create installation media for it, they are welcome to do so. Cheers. It was fun working on this project and I deeply deeply deeply regret having to drop it. I just hit a wall with trying to get a better installation media and I don't have time to actively work on this project and keep up my other food projects. I hope y'all have a great day. #writerdeckOS #permacomputing #linux #writerdeck #cyberdeck

Ever since I saw the Typeframe (a DIY writerdeck or cyberdeck), I wanted to build one. And so I did! I tweaked the design here and there to fit what I had on hand and my tastes. Here's the result. I'm pleased with how it turned out. #typeframe #cyberdeck #writerdeck

The Typeframe is modeled after the Epson PX-4 and looks like a twin. The 7.9" LCD is also a touchscreen. I chose a Raspberry Pi 5 and an inexpensive ready-made keyboard. It's all powered by a 10 Ah battery and charges with USB-C. And lots of 3D printing and cable management. More info. to build your own: https://www.typeframe.net/ #typeframe #cyberdeck #writerdeck
