You say you prefer a terminal; from your additional interests sounds like you're on the wrong type of hardware. Now, bare with me for a moment, as we are currently seeing some pretty significantly low prices for people like us. I work remotely, and have a nice workstation in my home office. I've found it really easy to have a keyboard, mouse & monitor at my frequent destinations, and I just carry an Intel Compute Stick in my pocket. 1920x1080 monitors are being pushed out, and are available for $70-$120. Add a keyboard and mouse for an additional $20. The Compute Sticks start at $99, and are perfectly able to drive a 4K monitor if need be, surf fine, Teamviewer/Remote Desktop into my real workstation. If I have actual work at my remote, I can take a Nuc, a $350 4"x2" box, that runs complete development suites, and any OS ya want. For the expense of either of your options above, you could have 3 monitor/muse/key setups, a Compute Stick & and more than one Nuc.
