   I am typing this on an original IBM Model M. Since I have a disassembled   
   spare sitting next to me, I just checked: a normal Banana Pi Board (same   
   size as an old RPi) fits fine into the space under the keys at the back - so   
   if you de-solder the GPIO header and solder in an angled connector, this   
   might work ;-)   
      
   You would need to convert the keyboard to USB, eg. using
