My laptop (from 2012) might die soon and I'm thinking to replace it with Raspberry Pi 3B+. These kind of computers can be an option for light computing while traveling. I just wonder if it can run Sublime.



Probably not - I don't believe ARM is supported. See https://www.reddit.com/r/SublimeText/comments/9p7xxd/can_sub...


Those Intel Compute Sticks are pretty cool and can plug straight into a hotel room TV. Pair that with a bluetooth keyboard/mouse and it can be a solid experience. I don't know if they still update them...


I have an intel compute stick that came with Widnows 10. It has 32GB of internal storage, the issue is the newest windows update wont fit on the silly thing. I got around it buy attaching a usb drive for the update and that left very little romm for ANYTHING. I did put ubuntu on it and it is better. But still tight.

Still cheap and fun to play with.


You can supply your own 64 GB SD/eMMC card and set the bios to boot from that.


Mine is a cheap one, it does not have an external sdcard slot. It just has the internal 32GB, 1 usb3 and 1 usb2 slot and the HDMI port (and wireless and bluetooth). So i could boot from an external USB, but that kinda kills the point of the computer stick :)


Expensive but they are pretty solid.

Is there a way to use an Android device as a PC by plugging in kb, mouse, and display?


Maybe something like the Kangaroo could do, since it runs an Intel CPU and would perform slightly better than the Intel ComputeStick.
