A project log for Luggable PC

A nominally portable ("luggable") computer chassis for commodity desktop PC components.

The experiment to build a luggable frame to carry a Yamakazi Catleap (28" QHD) monitor with a HP Z220 small form factor case is moving to the back burner. After building two prototype frames, it became clear the size and weight is a bit high for what we can consider "luggable".

The changes for experimental prototype #2 are documented here.

But the underlying concept of building a luggable PC out of a commercially available computer monitor (versus a salvaged laptop panel driven by a questionable eBay circuit board from China) is still compelling and will continue to evolve with smaller and lighter components.
