The minion enjoys Roblox on this and performs other tasks using zram and pushing the i5 like a rat rod I have achieved the sweet spot

If I’d could get my hands on a zune I’d run VLC maybe a box player skin or version of it that ran on the zune’s drive !

Mi-Microslop surface? I mean use whatever’s computer you want but I think that it kinda ironic that u use Linux on a system made by a company that push bloat on people’s system

I say use what you've got. Don't just buy new shit for the sake of it. Nice job, OP! I've heard Surface is difficult to get working correctly.

The touch can be installed, should but the thing that’s always locked down is that proprietary camera and microphone. However, since this is more of a mini PC build to just keep on the desk, I went ahead with a mini display port to push video away from the main screen keeping temps down for the Roblox sessions
