Do you own a #Toshiba #Libretto #50CT with a password-locked BIOS? The guy who 3D prints replacement cases for vintage laptops took to a 50CT recently, and designed a special circuit board that slots into its dock connector to reset the password.

You can buy one, or download the files and get one made: https://github.com/hrushka/LibrettyKey

Cute and speaking to family-level nostalgia perhaps, more than its artful writing, "Amahl" falls short of its defenders' claim as one of the best librettos. "Licorice!"
