HP put a mini PC inside a keyboard, and I love it

The EliteBoard G1a is a clever Windows-based PC with upgradable components housed in a sleek, full-sized keyboard.

This is something that HP has showed off at CES.
It’s a PC inside a keyboard, a la Raspberry Pi 400/500.

It’s a form factor that I’m pretty interested in personally, especially paired with some lighter weight HMDs like the xreal glasses.
It could also work in tandem VR headset, but maybe not as useful since the most used ones already have compute in them.

There’s also the alternative of the Bento (github) made by the cool @michaelthatsit (twitter) which is a documented DIY project to transform Steam Deck into a keyboard PC !
