Custom Raspberry Pi Case Harkens Back to '80s-Era Computing

The low-cost Raspberry Pi micro-computer was created to give kids an application development platform that could be hacked with abandon — thus saving Mom and Dad the heartache of a thoroughly borked home PC. The Pi’s creators hope that their modest development machine will rekindle the DIY spirit that was prevalent among nerds in the 1980s. Super-modder Ben Heck took that nostalgia-fueled idea, and went one step further by creating a Raspberry Pi case that resembles an iconic computer from the War Games era.
