Looks too thick. Needs to be light and ultra-portable. Passive cooling if possible.


Agreed. Bought a chromebook and made a distro that boots into neovim for this reason.

It's fanless. Cost $45. Makes almost no heat after tweaking. Has a 12 hour battery life under use. Basically functions as an electronic (abeit more advanced) typewriter.

Since the screen is 11 inches. I usually prop the Kindle on one side of it and use nvim in vsplit mode. Half the screen becomes e-ink. Can read and take notes at the same time.


I'd love to hear more details about your setup, if you're willing to share. Especially the part about using the Kindle as a secondary screen.


Hi,

Thank you for the feedback; we are working on creating the laptop chassis and are taking this into consideration.
