That's funny...a computer facelift.
Actually, a number of companies offered the
same type of thing for the
ZX-81/Timex-Sinclair 1000. It was to give the computer a real keyboard
And the
Atari ST -- to put it in a tower case, among other things.
One of the prettiest machines I ever saw was a TRS-80 Color Computer
built into a PC clone portable case, with color tube (not yet common in
PC luggables at the time) along with the multi-pak interface, floppy
controller, etc. It's something I've considered doing myself, but other
priorities keep rearing ugly heads.
