Pismo makeover

I used to love my Pismo, but it is now lost. What I intend to do are two, maybe three makeovers, for which I need two maybe three Pismos and a few batteries.

Build 1 simply restores the Pismo, repacks the batteries, inserts an airport card, and installs BSD with VNC. I'll put a pretty powerful Raspberry Pi in the right expansion bay and VNC to that through wifi. Bazoo.

Build 2 keeps the keyboard, batteries, and that Pi, but replaces the screen and motherboard with a more powerful single board computer.

The third option is just to replace the screen with an iPad Pro and have the Pismo act as a Magic Keyboard. I'll need parts so any connections you folks can make please do.
