Sean "xobs" Cross - Novena: Building a laptop from scratch
What does it take to build your own laptop, and why would anyone do such
a thing? Sean will talk about the rationale behind the Novena project,
some of the pitfalls they've run up against along the way, and plans for
future projects.

the Novena laptop project, digging into SD card firmware, or trying to
