>keyboard not split with function keys in the middle
into the trash it goes
Why would you waste all that space that could've been used for a bigger keyboard?
Because that model is tailored for games.
herd u like ports dawg
>serial AND usb-c
Fucking why.
Are those circles in the bottom left supposed to be 3.5mm jacks?
Pre-order's $314 right now

>serial
Do you mean ethernet? RJ-motherfucking-45?
Both
Pretty sure he's talking about the serial port
Why not? It's better than empty space and basically free in terms of cost and chip requirements compared to any other interface on there already.
It's also practically useful in a lot of areas.

Seems in line with a small device like that.
No, he means RS232. Legit full sized serial.
RS-232 is incredibly useful for, say sysadmins.
A tiny portable pc with rs-232 is a godsend for us.
Why not an actual useful port like VGA instead of something even a network admin only uses once a year?
Am sysadmin. We have switches from 1995 that have rs232 for conf.
I'm not actually familiar with what would be required for VGA with modern hardware. You might need extra components to convert the video signal.
Serial is the same as it ever was.
What happened to that one that looked like it was made by literal Jow Forumsentoomen? I remember some models being posted here.
I have a pfsense router from like 2007
it has RS-232 serial
Da Fuq i wanna is how for such a simple low speed dinosaur format USB RS232 cables consistently fuck up. The amount of automotive and aviation RS232 shit i have had not work with USB cables in mind bending. Im legit mad. I have to keep an archaic panansonic toughbook just for freaking hardware RS232 FFS REEEEEEEEEEEEEE
This is good bait
We keep old 2010 era Core 2 Duo laptops around for those since those still had serial ports. There is no fucking reason any consumer laptop should ever have serial in 20-fucking-19 though.
>let's replace this useful and still relevant universal communications port that is occasionally used with a redundant legacy display port that is occasionally used
??? logic
RS-232 is used on home theater receivers and professional sound equipment as well

I fucking love ports so much
I mean I like VGA but serial is more useful. Not at the expense of USB OBVIOUSLY.
A rather poor place to put the power button.
Hands down the best piece of technology i ever owned, period.
Runner up is an i7 x220, doesn't even come close.

That serial port should unironically have been just another USB port. Serial is an extreme niche port, and completely justifiably left entirely to dongle territory.

fuck off zoomer
what is it, model?
I cannot read that logo.
oh man, I want one of these so bad.
Same. Those things are cyberpunk as fuck.
I had one. Had the GSM card too. Used it to play FFXI on the go. Totally useless form factor though. Hard to actually get anything done with it.
That would be the Dragonbox Pyra
Quit this shit.
