@sman42 @koen @derPUPE @frameworkcomputer let's do this

an arduino pro micro usb-c would be ideal for a prototype I suppose

https://keeb.io/products/pro-micro-usb-c-version-5v-16mhz-arduino-compatible-atmega32u4

switches could be wired and controlled like in this tutorial here

openSCAD design for framework modules:

Perhaps some of my friends from @revspace would like to help. 😎

@derPUPE Great idea, even though very special interest! Beside other curious modules, ThinkPads had also had this option. 💻🔴

@derPUPE though your "it is exactly what you think it is" was slightly off…I thought it was a PCMCIA card with number-pad, not a notebook bay numpad. 😛

But that is a wild bit of hardware!

@derPUPE Everybody was Excel fighting. False numbers fast as lightning. I'll admit it was a little bit "right-wing". But they fought with excellent auto-summing.

@derPUPE UltraBay was such a great feature. I think people tend to see ThinkPad as a rather stuffy old-fashioned kind of brand these day, but they were really innovative back in the day.

@derPUPE So, uh... I have to ask the obvious question, but, uh... What happens if your PCMCIA ports are on the left side instead?

Every laptop I had with PCMCIA had it on the left, lol.
