A spare monitor and keyboard are handy things to have around, but they’re a bit of a hassle. They are useful for hardware development, plugging in to headless servers, or firing up a Raspberr…

It really looks like a laptop, but it’s actually a 14″ 1920 x 1280 monitor and USB keyboard in a laptop form factor.

There is also an integrated trackpad, speakers and mic, and a rechargeable battery. That makes it capable of providing its own power, and it can even function as a power bank in a pinch. There’s an HDMI input on one side, and on the other is a full-featured USB-C port that accepts video input via the DisplayPort altmode.

    Would also be nice if it had an internal SBC or Framework-style motherboard that could be selected as an input device.

    So, a laptop? 😆

    Well, a laptop with a bunch of connectivity.

      Lol, basically. Though I don’t know if off the shelf laptop boards would easily support passing the LCD/KB/touchpad and USB hub to an external host. I’m sure it could be done, but not without some careful design considerations.

      I just figured it would be easier, design-wise, to take what they already have and attach a Framework motherboard to an internal USB-C port and leaving the external C ports open.
