I've done work like this. Nasta's done work like this. My work focused on
case design and thermal/structural design issues. Nasta's the PCB design
guru ;)

I have every respect for what they've done, and know that now they've
shown the principle, there will be lots of copylikes in a few months.

What would it take for us to put together something as tidy as this?
