    A portable gaming PC? You mean… Like a Steam Deck? 😑

    Maybe someone could add a screen to it? Like, with a hinge that folds down when not in use?

    Using a magic keyboard for this is a bit cursed

      Might be a legit form factor if you’re using a head-mounted display.

      EDIT: Which apparently the guy who made it is doing.

    As somebody who had a Spectrum and an Amiga, I approve.

    Ehh… not much of a keyboard gamer. I wonder if I can plug a controller into it. I still have a steam controller that would work good. Maybe also like a small LCD instead of the keyboard. I’d have to attach the controller somehow to make it truly mobile but I think we’re onto something BIG.
