@gumnos absolutely agreed, I own a Thinkpad x270 and it’s an absolute beauty. I already mourn the day I’ll have to say goodbye.

Maybe you’re looking for an MNT Reform Pocket? 😬

MNT Pocket Reform Laptop - MNT Research Shop

MNT Pocket Reform is a 7" mini laptop that is fully open hardware. Customizable, upgradeable, repairable!

@dottorblaster yeah, that's about the closest I've seen to anything with similar style. I'm not sure I'm ready to shell out >$1k for an ortholinear keyboard since I've never used one before.

But overcome those two hesitations, and it's some fine lookin' hardware ☺
