As a Windows system built inside of a functioning membrane keyboard<\/a>, the HP EliteBoard G1a announced today is a more accessible alternative to other keyboard-PCs.<\/p>\n

The Commodore 64 made the keyboard-PC famous in the 1980s, but the keyboard-PC space has been dominated by the Raspberry Pi. In 2019, the single-board computer (SBC) maker released the Raspberry Pi 400<\/a>, which is essentially a Raspberry Pi 4 SBC inside a case that also functions as a keyboard for the system. USB, HDMI, and Ethernet ports, plus a GPIO header and native Raspberry Pi OS Linux distribution add up to a low-end desktop computer experience that only costs $100. Then the Raspberry Pi 500<\/a> with a Pi 5 powered by a quad-core, 64-bit Arm Cortex-A76 inside, and the Pi 500+<\/a>, which has NVMe SSD, instead of microSD, storage, and is built inside of a low-profile mechanical keyboard (it\u2019s also twice as expensive at $200).<\/p>\n
