I just ordered a Pi 2, fitted inside a modified replacement keyboard
for a ZX Spectrum that I found when packing up my house before leaving
the UK. It's required a little bit of case modification to the
keyboard, which is a slightly shame, but it was not particularly
valuable and I have no other use for it.

The keyboard is one of these:

And the conversion was done by Tynemouth Software:

Dave Curran of Tynemouth refurbishes dead 8-bits either as USB
keyboards for modern computers, or fits RasPis into them to bring them
back to life.
