[Chris] sent in his diy laptop. While it reminds me of the kid laptops at the toy store, it's a nice effort. It's got a PICAXE 18X microcontroller, 20x4 blue serial lcd, a laptop keyboard and runs his custom built language: chris++. Power comes from four AA batteries, and duct tape secures the electronics inside the wood case.
