nyaa, the Raspberry Pi 400 is everything I personally want out of a computer, I think.
Low heat, energy efficient, tiny and portable, replaceable & upgradable storage space, with no inaccessible components that die after 4 years (like rechargable batteries)... Can play some game decently well.
Maan. If Godot Engine had an officially supported ARM build for it, I might even make that into my main development laptop. And use it with the most energy efficient lowest-brightness monitor I can find, nya.
The downsides to using an ARM system on a chip as your main computer are nearly identical to the downsides of using Linux as your only OS:
It doesn't play all those super cool overly detailed fancy newfangled Unreal Engine 4 videogames that were only released for Windows 10.
Just, with the additional caveat that you can't "shoehorn it to work anyway" using Proton or whatever, because it's a low-power ARM device that wouldn't be able to run it decently on even the lowest settings that game offers either, even if you tried.
As long as it runs graphically-simple games like ADOM and Cataclysm:DDA, who cares about missing out on all the fancy pictures?
@ccc It seems plausible, yes. It doesn't need a pair of screens, just one wide screen split in half by a separator, ala Google Cardboard.
It might require some incredible optimization to get a framerate that doesn't immediately induce sickness though. Frustum culling, possibly skipping the fish eye rendering in favor of a limited fov, ...
But I think it could happen.
