@likesoldmacs@bitbang.social Neat. I didn't fully appreciate how much custom engineering they did here. I'll be curious to see if anyone has thoughts on getting the touchscreen to work properly—maybe the problem is with the controller board.
Looks like the company (https://trollsystems.com/) does still exist, technically, although it's probably safe to assume they don't offer support for products from 30+ years ago.

@csilverman@mastodon.social time for some LinkedIn trolling! (ha) Also made me wonder if some of the guts were reused in the clamshell ibook touchscreen oddity - the ports for the switches look the same and after all the work on this one, doing some ADB>USB magic would have been trivial.
