Something ive been wanting for a while is a highly portable linux device like a phone or small tablet but obviously running fully flegde linux.
I need a device that is x86, 5g/4g networking water resistant if possible, sliding kB would be great but thats a bye gone era.
I don’t want to use android based systems as when they have linux support it is via a spersific distribution made for that device. Virtualization is also not for me.
I know this isn’t a direct answer but … if other restraints are that important (portability, water residence, I assume a bright screen, etc) it might be a viable compromise to get a good ARM (Linux) tablet & then use remote (via VPN) to a desktop PC (or like a VM) for super fast (but potentially laggy) x86.
