Now this concept isn't new. Schropp made his first Lego computer back in 2011 but has since had tons of requests to reproduce the concept. People really took to the concept and inquired about getting one of their own and even asking Schropp about custom variations. However, the original concept wasn't one that was easily replicated.
With all the interest in the computer, Schropp has been trying to figure out a way to make one that wasn't hard to reproduce and one that could be purchased by anyone looking for a new computer with a unique twist. The challenge was to make a Lego computer that was compatible with a wide array of devices and one that is also capable of meeting the needs of modern users. This new device needed to be advanced in 2015 and still relevant in 2017 but could also be upgraded so that it might last as long as 2020.
With all this in mind, Schropp fine tuned the guidelines for his new Lego Computer System:
Design
- Small Form Factor Design
- Intuitive Features
- Thermal Management Control
- Fully Wired Connectivity (USB 3.0, DisplayPort, HDMI, LAN, Audio)
- Wireless Connectivity (Wireless AC, Bluetooth)
- Optical Drive (DVD/CD Combo Standard, Blu-Ray Optional)
- Front USB 3.0 Ports

This is definitely an incredible idea and one that a lot of people all over the world would be more than willing to get their hands on. I'm half tempted to get one right now! Truly an amazing accomplishment.
