Think of an Atari, but significantly faster, much slimmer, and portable. The Ling Long foldable keyboard is an interesting product—a portable mini-PC embedded into a keyboard chassis. One side houses the battery, while the other contains a full motherboard with the APU, memory, storage, and cooling system. When folded, it can fit into a back pocket.

That's pretty neat! Wonder what kind of battery life it has off the plug with that size cell and the super efficient ryzen chip it's got.

I wonder too it like the perfect rigs to move around. Probably would work great as an emulator.

I love and hate this idea.  The idea of a small portable PC that can easily plug into a TV is great.  There's another part of me that says, wait, I hate all in one PC's and this is exactly that.  There's another part of me that says, why bother?  Just get a laptop.

 

I'm all for affordable PCs for everyone.  Part of my draw to Raspberry Pi's is how cheap and affordable they are.  Sadly, Raspberry Pi's aren't all smooth sailing and while they can do most stuff people want a computer for, it doesn't ever feel fast or responsive.

 

If anyone gets one I'd love to hear about how it preforms.
