Portable console for all PC games - PGS

Factory GPU acceleration
what does this mean ?

 

I believe it means factory overclock.

Wow, I'm coming on this thread again and it's like I missed the product on the first time.
I think there are many** people that may appreciate the software freedom, and others (overlapping) who want a smartphone with a slide out keyboard, but can't find one anywhere and could use this product instead (if only for using a remote command line, email or other tasks)

These sorts of people are often adamant about the SD slot and removable battery.

** : for an unquantified definition of many. [on a well-known, long running site about tech and open source with "stories" and "comments" that mix rants, high quality comments and toxic trolls]

I have a feeling it is too cheap (affordable) or is it just what you get from doubling down on the budget of a $100 Windows tablet?
/edit : that reminds me of the netbooks. Smaller hardware was cheaper and that was a good thing for once.

Only question : does it boot linux?, or is the bootloader weird.

Users would have to figure out how to attach a keyboard etc. and make it usable, the blame would be (hopefully) put mostly on Intel for issues.
Not critical for everyone : it's possible to run debian/ubuntu etc. or unix-like software on Android or even from Windows (multiple ways)

 

It has Bluetooth 4.0 and runs Windows 10, so connecting a keyboard and mouse in its default configuration will be easy.

I'm assuming it should be relatively easy in Linux as well? I guess it'll depend on the Bluetooth chipset used.

It looks great but I think its too good to be true.

do you have a video of a working prototype?

 

My company is interested to buy 1000 units for schools in my country. we need video of working prototype though

 

I imagine how heated it will be while playing. And for me 5.5 inches is not comfortable for most of this games.
