Arduino Laptop

Got a toy laptop from Gumtree and replaced the insides with Arduino.

The keyboard is a 6x8 matrix. I use a decade counter for the columns and arduino pins for the rows. The keyboard require 8 io pins, 6 for the rows and 2 for the decade counter (reset and clock). You can view Ben Heck's example here    • Ben's Text Radios for Maker Faire   .
