I want less microsoft/copilot in things, not more. I don't know who this is for.
I don't understand the advantages of this over a laptop (this is essentially laptop-grade hardware and thermal profile but without the screen & battery).
> Launch Microsoft Copilot in Windows with a touch of the Copilot key,4 to write content, analyze data, and stay organized. Oh thank goodness. This whole product idea is further trying to gatekeep computing hardware. You will pay a cloud subscription to perform anything remotely computationally taxing.

OK, great. I like what I've heard about the Ryzen AI chips so far. But can I install Linux on this thing?
Earlier quoted context omitted.
Nah by then the collapse of jobs will have freed up 10s of millions with access to guns. Lots of guns.
People are being shot in the face right now by the government and the people who own the most guns are cheering them on. Guns won't solve this.

Incorrectly advertising battery capacity as 32W instead of (presumably) 32WH is a hilarious mistake for a company the size of HP
So it's a laptop, without display. Can I attach my own keyboard? From the pictures, I get the impression the keyboard sucks.
That was my initial thought. They made the keyboard a big part of the product, and that is the keyboard they came up with?
It's like advertising a fancy new type of AIO and then putting a crummy 50% sRGB gamut 480p TN panel in it.

But concept-wise I think it's a dud. A laptop without a monitor. So you either carry the laptop as two pieces (some good portable monitors around) or you are limited to only plugging it in where there's a monitor available.
Also, it seems they couldn't be bothered to spring for mechanical switches when the entire product is focused around a keyboard. Sheesh.

Here's[1] how HP marketed the "first personal computer", in 1968:
> "Ready to relieve you of waiting to get on the big computer," the ad declares. "Willing to perform log and trig functions, even hyperbolics and coordinate transformations at the touch of a key. Able to take on roots of a fifth-degree polynomial, Bessel functions, elliptic integrals and regression analysis."

They've now gone full circle, from "Ready to relieve you of waiting to get on the big computer", to "here's a dedicated key for remote computing, the core concept of this product".
