OS themed chassis

[nemesis]

Born from LarsPPC idea.

OS themed chassis?
Ok i realize it might be a expensive idea but an idea what so ever.

- Debian
- MorphOS
- BSD

of course the teams responsible for the OSes would have to have a hand in this but how about it?

Depends, engraving a logo or a custom paintjob aren't that expensive. Modifying the chassis would be expensive.
If we ever make an Amiga edition laptop, I think we really do need a special edition paint job.

Why not, a good looking "geek-mod". Maybe changeable. Like the iMacs with different colors.

Amiga would also be cool. Maybe the same colors like the original Amiga beige
We have to pay attention on trademarks, then.

Exactly thats why the developer teams of the themed notebooks should be involved

If the laptop is fully FOSS compliant, we could present Richard Stallman with a laptop. Image if he uses it during his conferences and such, that's some serious rep for our laptop!

Am I right the Richard Stallman is using a MIPS notebook already?
But yes, would be cool
Don't forget Linus

He was using a MIPS Loongson laptop, but now he uses a Thinkpad laptop with an older Core 2 Duo which doesn't contain Intel's proprietary microcode, but it's quite old.
