> It's very light and I don't need a separate adapter since any USB-C will do. It uses HDMI so I can connect to most hotel TVs to use as a large monitor. From this machine I can SSH to any of the other machines I need access to and so it acts as a terminal.

To each their own, but I specifically avoid taking a laptop on any pleasure trip where I want to limit the work I can do, not to make it easier to do work.

If it is a work trip (or at least work-interlaced), plugging a custom device into a hotel TV screen sounds tedious - and the screens are probably going to be of poor quality (low resolution, low refresh rate) - so good enough for a hotel room but much worse than a laptop or a monitor.

That said, glad it works for your use cases. If so, it probably will work for at least one other person!
