Well, again, this is nothing particularly magical. It's just that
somebody spent some time making drawings. There's *lots* of jackets
one *could* make. The key is to actually do it. I'd sure like to see
Compaq come out with one or more of these.

Even better would be a design for a jacket which allowed you to attach
multiple jackets. Remember the HP-41 expansion packs? There were a
few hackers at HP who munged together the back of an HP-41 with the
front of a card-reader. So you could use 7 plug-ins -- three in the
HP-41 plus another 4 in the card-reader.
