while working on some work time tracking stuff today i noticed that exactly 5 years ago, in june/july 2019, i was routing the MNT Reform 2.0 motherboard (the one for the classic MNT Reform laptop most of you know).

this page had a dead link to a video showing how we basically hand-made the whole laptop back then, now restored mntmn.com/media/videos/reform-

@mntmn I expect in 10 years these 13 laptops will go for 2000/pieceat least. even higher later

@mntmn Sooo cool
Idk it feels like the older version was much more complicated/ newer models are simpler, am I just fooled with all of those little things going in it(which are in current models more integrated?)

@mntmn That is such a phenomenally cool / fascinating video

@mntmn That's so cool! Was the bottom-plate 3d printed back then? And the fan was replaced by a bigger heatsink?

@gustav the acrylic plates were lasercut. and yes, exactly @ heatsink. fan was annoying

@mntmn The video is awesome, shows the complex of the work done.

@mntmn the rubber band for closing really give it a lot of personnality :D
