Heard of the Raspberry Pi? It’s taken the geek world by storm.

In case you haven’t, see this for a quick visual.

So I bought a Model A Raspberry Pi with the intent if turning it into my home print (and airprint) server, and I obviously needed a case to house my little computer. Here is what I came up with:
