Could be the perfect hardware to repurpose for an emulated NeXTCube project 🤔
(It's a docking station, but I bet you could fit a raspberry pi in there, and those ports would probably be trivial to hook up)
@fraggle
apparently that thing is "wireless" - meant to be connected to the thinkpad via "WiGig", some kind of Gigabit WiFi extension?
Probably doesn't work that well with RPi?
@Doomed_Daniel I haven't researched the device a whole lot, I'll admit. "Wireless wired internet connection" would seem like an odd design choice though
@fraggle I see it's from IBM^W^W^W...force of habit; *Lenovo's* cursed era of "USB-A but with an extra center pin because otherwise this charger is probably a motherboard killer" power connectors.
@fraggle Some potentially useful infos for anyone thinking about using it as a dock... https://www.reddit.com/r/thinkpad/comments/lw6epc/why_i_didnt_get_a_wigig_dock_after_researching_it/
@m Interesting, thanks for sharing!
