You could take a normal laptop and remove the screen.
I've seen several laptops used like this. The only issue is that the WiFi antennas are (usuall?) in the screen.

I wouldn't do it, personally, and that would be one of the main reasons. It says more about me than about the idea itself though. I would love it for the ergonomics. If it's not too hard on the eyes I would consider it at home.
The real win for me is being able to work outside in full sunlight, without having to care about screen glare. I have used them in the office and in coffee shops but that's almost incidental.
That battery pack is too large to fly with, unless they changed the regulations? Used to be 10,000 mAH no?

I currently use my ROG Alli with a Bluetooth keyboard to connect to my more powerful laptop which has a keyboard that's going bad. While this setup works well and the battery life is pretty good it would be much nicer if I didn't have to put a keyboard on my lap, and the Alli on a t…
I don't see it mentioned, but I'd feel completely ridiculous using this in a coffee shop or on the train.

I've seen a couple of this kinds of setups online and I'm intrigued, as I'm just done with the laptop form factor, but I don't think this is it.
