The first AmigaBook built

[alama]

Rodrik from France achieved his goal of building the first Laptop "Amigabook" based on an A600 mainboard + furia + rgb2hdmi... It was a very technical challenging project..

The AmgaBook will be presented at the next Ouf Party which will be held in Switzerland at the beginning of June.

Was there another one? done many years ago and it was a one-off. It was finished in black? it was pretty much stuffed to the max as everything was crammed in, virtually no room whatsoever.

I think it was named "Alice" but I cannot be sure, memory is vague about it.

Now THIS is a perfect use case for an FPGA based board of some sort. Something around the MISTer would result in a quite compact looking setup potentially. And quite capable too.

@ElectroBlaster I think you're thinking of Suzanne which was black and was built by Simon Archer

Yes you are right! memory is cloudy about it, it was in a magazine, Amiga Format I think it was, short time before it went under.

That's right, I've never heard of Suzanne before: https://web.archive.org/web/20180925183301/http://www.bambi-amiga.co.uk/amigahistory/suzanne.html

Very nice achievement
