What is a “cyberdeck”? According to https://hackaday.com/tag/cyberdeck/, it’s basically a style of home-built computer with futuristic/sci-fi/cyberpunk overtones. The name comes from (what else) a William Gibson novel. It seems common to use a Raspberry π as the beating heart, with a custom 3D-printed case around it plus other suitably interesting-looking parts.
Angles seem preferable to curves, with asymmetrically-inset polygons very popular. Weird and wacky keyboard layouts are a bonus. The diminutive size of the Raspberry π leaves plenty of room for experimentation.
We can build the future-that-never-was! We have the technology now.
