    As opposed to a fake SSD.

    A keyboard that plugs into a monitor, just like my old Conmodore 64. We’ve come full circle.

      Given Raspberry Pis ran from SD cards for most of their history, legitimately yes, as opposed to a fake SSD.

    It also costs more than an n100 mini pc or a used thinkpad

      Not a fan of blue switches, but an n100 mini pc doesn’t come with a mechanical keyboard! (something something apples and oranges)

      Full disclosure: I have an n100 mini pc at this price and I love it.

        Looking briefly at american amazon it looks like you can get a mini pc and an (admittedly not amazing) mechanical keyboard for like 200ish dollars.
