Quick heads up: if you buy through links on this page (which I truly appreciate), I may earn a tiny commission. It helps keep this site going. But honestly, that's not my motivation. I've personally bought and tested everything listed here - I only recommend what I'd tell a friend to get. Win-win, if you ask me.

oh I see, the rounded silver thing is a touchpad? I have at least one old laptop touchpad laying around, maybe i'll see if I can get it to work with a PS2 to USB adapter. I also might just order the blackberry trackball and some arduino-like tiny dev board and try to write the software myself. my case and screen are coming on august 26th, and I am going to start out with a Pi 2 as the computer until I can get a better one, since right now my Pi 3 is hosting HomeAssistant for me.

Happy to see other great builds here, thank you for sharing! I've also published a status update on the original build, hope you might find something useful.

Thanks for sharing this cool laptop !
I also built my own:
