Not really. Assuming the definition:
> the GPD Pocket has many aspects that are not so great
almost all the laptops around fit that bill when it comes to Linux, each in its own way, so the GPD is nothing special in the broad view.
- larrik 9y agoEvery laptop has aspects that aren't so great, including Macs.
- pizza234 9y agoYes, and that's the point why a new machine, revolution-wise, is just a drip in the lake, unless it has some exceptional aspect.
- mmjaa 9y agoWell, the touchscreen factor should not be underestimated. I've gotten rid of an iPad, a netbook, and a desktop workstation by having the GPD Pocket serve the same basic functions as each .. where I would comfortably use the iPad for reading, I now use the GPD. Where I would normally have a workstation PC for development, same GPD. Where I would absolutely have had a netbook to pack in a bag alongside the snacks for trips up the mountain, same GPD. If the next GPD is a little larger, with a moderately improved keyboard and expansion options - its going to replace my MacBook subscription, no doubt about it.
