    it's closer to my wants, but basic spreadsheets are all my clients need right now and that really doesn't need any more processing power than a phone has. i plug a keyboard and a mouse in and i'm able to work off of there. if i really need to i can cast to a screen, even got a couple usb-C male to hdmi male cables.
