I travel frequently and always seem to have to lug a laptop to and fro through airports. I wen to a table but can’t see all my data and I don’t have the same access as with a laptop. I decided to go minimal but still be able to look at my spreadsheets and documents on something other than a phone or tablet.
I got a Rasberry Pi, a couple of cables and a remote keyboard. I hook the RPi up to the hotel computer with a thumb drive of all my work and sit back and enjoy the big screen computer. I also have a WiFi chip so I can access the hotel internet.
The computer case is 3x2x1 and the keyboard is 6x4x1 and there is a HDMI and power cable to connect the computer to the TV. It all fits in the outer pocket of my carryon and goes through TSA with no problem.
Oh, the RPi and case and cables came in at less than $100 and the keyboard was less than $20.
