There are many mini PCs, but none has such a loyal fan community as the Atari Portfolio. One of the most famous names in the pofo scene was Stefan Kächele, who offered a retrofittable backlight for the Portfolio in 1995. Similar kits for HP’s palmtops and the Apple MessagePad Newton 2000 followed, and with backlight4you this has become a whole online store that supplies hobbyists with the individual parts.
25 years later he put together a new backlight kit for the portfolio, a modern version based on power-saving LEDs and an especially thin light guide body. For the first time, different light colors are available: warm white, green, orange-yellow, red and daylight white. An installation service is currently not offered. The price depends on the quantity purchased, an LED backlight kit for personal use costs just under 30 euros.
