basically like one of those 80s "laptops" that came as a box with a flip-out display and a keyboard attached. of course more modern: bigger, better screens for working on a graphical interface, wireless peripherals, maybe flatter, like a pizzabox. the ups to a traditional laptop would be better cooling and room fur upgrades. many people have laptops and they sit on a desk forever, maybe moved once a month.
