      Cabin bag is around 20 in x 17 in x 9 in. A HP RP5 may fit but my bag will almost be full. I prefer a gaming desktop at around or below 12 in x 12 in x 3 in so I can put other stuff.

      I assume this means that there will be a monitor/keyboard/mouse where ever you are taking this cabin bag?

          Isn't a cabin bag what pilots and flight attendants use?

            I've heard of those called bug out bags... but they normally don't have computers in them.. at least not gaming ones 😉

                I have a gen 1 version of this, with an i3, and it's been great. I'm not a super serious gamer, but you can get way better GPU options now, and the high end one is $1,000.

                    The review about yellow ring on amazon is scary, this could have been a great product if i will get the working one.

                      That issue must only affect the newer generation ones, mine has been running full time, stable, for over 2 years.

                      All those negative review are also for units NOT bought from Dell, but from some shady 3rd party seller on Amazon... that's not what you want to do. No guarantee that the ones he is selling are "new" or even contain all the correct, original parts.

                          You can do a retropi 3 for about $75 if you count the case, SD card and controllers. ROMs are up to you. If you add a small screen, you might bump it to $150.
