    Our favourite case in copious web travels is what you might call an RPi laptop case; it's actually made of wood and quite early in development. The completed machine will feature a 4.3in LCD display and a PIC-based QWERTY keyboard.
    Ooh, nice - sort of a Nintendo DS for geeks!

    As to the other cases, like the official one - but it's crying out for some blobs on the top (and matching holes underneath) to turn it into a giant Lego brick.

    Let's just see if the Pi passes CE certification first lol. I told them to get it tested when I first started following last year, we all saw this coming, except for the foundation.

    That would be an awesome Feature could have a stackable cluster

    Lego + super glue for me.

    I'll glue the bottom and sides in place and put the lid on a hinge I think

    "Be aware though, that possibly the new production-release RPi will be of a slightly different size or circuit board configuration to the beta RPi people already own"

    Not an issue as ModMyPi are waiting until the first batch have been officially released so they can measure up.

    Hi,
    I need to clarify that my case for Raspberry Pi computer will be 3D-printed by Shapeways and will be available for purchase on my Shapeways Shop (MakeItReal)

    Info: on my blog.

    Re: News - Raspberry Pi cases; everything except shortcrust.

    Can't help wondering if RPi will see a resurgence of the "weird stuff as computer cases" that was the rage when Mini-ITX was the rage. So will we see RPi powered "teapot" computers for example?
