Really amazing and impressive work. And also an excellent resource for future explorers.

One thing I didn't see mentioned in the video is the total cost of all the materials to complete one laptop not including all the experimentation cost. I'd be super curious about that.

I have the R&D BOM in a link below [1]

Thanks.

Thank you! For anyone else looking for the top line number, it's $4,673.81. Really nice work. I wish you much success in life.

I have yet to finish processing reimbursement. LOL. His parents pre-paid for this project.

Best 5 grand they ever spent. Byran your cross discipline knowledge is amazing. Well done!

Quick question, are your parents in technology and science or are you self taught? Always like to hear about the backgrounds that create the environment for something like this to come together.

I've met amazing people throughout my journey thus far, but no. I have no background in engineering, but my parents have always been supportive. I started falling in love with it in 9th grade with keyboards + ZMK!

Others: don’t downvote this, it seems legit. See their other comments.

"NOTE: THIS IS R&D total cost. The DIY price should be less than $1500"

Thank you for this.

Great work! I am also interested in what tools you needed to do the work. Could you elaborate on that?
