The 701C keyboard is cool as fuck. Why don't we have anything like this today? Laptop keyboards could actually be usable this way.
Brandon Allen
Somewhat related, would anyone have a recommendation on a cheap($150 or less) small laptop for general terminal use? It will just have CentOS for practicing scripting and preparing for various certifications. My first thought was a refurbished hp mini laptop or something.

x220, you can even run some VMs on it, not too many but for lab work its good enough.
Carson Collins
because you have to place your hand in just the right way to open the fucking thing. also why would you want to do any work/business from a game boy sized screen
Bentley Cooper

>How much do they go for in EU?
This varies a lot but up north xx40 stuff is generally around 250€-300€, xx30 stuff is 150€-200€, xx20 is 80€-150€, xx10 is 60-80€.
Older ones then go anywhere from 20-120€

>100 bucks or less on ebay
yeah for the shitty ones or ones with missing hardware. for that I could easily get a refurbished workstation from a reputable site with better specs and free shipping
Gabriel Price

Isaac Roberts
