Was it, before the aleste was build?

Somebody brought one Hobbit like this to the last meeting at cpcmaníaco's home. But the case of this unit was painted brown! :-D


Aleste's case was a standard model for any kind of computers -in fact, it's easy to install PCBs of several sizes inside it. There are at least two 'configurations' -I mean by 'configuration' the frame formed by some 'fixation points', the plastic pieces where the board is attached to. There is a configuration for smaller boards (boards of Spectrum clones mainly, I guess),  and another one used by Aleste's PCB (which is much bigger).

The Aleste came before the Hobbit as far as I know.
