This is the 1993 Royal CL130 desktop ten-key adding machine: pics first, comment 2nd:



The Royal died but the display is still good (as well, the keyboard matrix lattice). I will cut the lan patterns and leave the main pcb in the unit (to solder the display headers). The center ridge in the base will have to be removed of course, but any of the Arduino boards I'm considering will fit in the base of this case; the IntelEdison would fit nicely too (still looking at that). The buttons will need to be resurfaced, of course, and I am still trying to decide about the display... the one that's there is fine (but, there is room there to mount (2) 16x2 LCD units for a four line display; and hey, for the prototype why not?

PS I am wanting to get my hands on an old dead woodstock
