What I need to work is a reasonably large screen, a good keyboard, and a computer powerful enough to run a decent editor, browser and ssh connection from that machine to one or more machines running the rest of my stuff.<p>In other words: I need a terminal. There&#x27;s no need for me to have a beefy computer on my desk, because I can leave that under my stairs and not have to worry where I work on it from, and mix and match when I use my home server or cloud instances.<p>The laptop I type this on basically functions as a luggable terminal (it&#x27;s a 17&quot; one; I often pack my 11&quot; Chromebook with it when travelling so I don&#x27;t need to pull out the 17&quot; one for minor stuff...), and not much more.<p>The only thing that will make me upgrade my laptop is improved graphics performance, better screen or better keyboard - everything else is pointless for me.<p>Meanwhile almost every mid range Chinese tablet today (mid-range = ca. $100-$200 these days) seems to be Atom based and supporting 4K HDMI output and dual-booting Android and Windows...It&#x27;s getting <i>very</i> close to the point where a tablet or phone + bluetooth keyboard + a HDMI connection is sufficient or me to work. 4K LED TV&#x27;s are so cheap now that I&#x27;m tempted to experiment.
