HP is announcing a caller mini desktop machine astatine CES 2026, and the full point is housed successful a compact keyboard. The Eliteboard G1a looks for illustration a normal agency keyboard pinch either a captive aliases detachable USB-C cable, but wrong it is an AMD Ryzen AI 300-series chip, stereo speakers, RAM, storage, a fan, and ports — each the things that dress up a computer. You conscionable plug this keyboard into a show (up to dual 4K displays via daisy-chain connection), move connected the included and pre-paired Bluetooth mouse, and you’re bully to go.
Pretty nifty, eh? This isn’t a wholly caller idea, arsenic the akin Raspberry Pi 500 exists. But that’s a single-board machine moving Raspberry Pi OS. The Eliteboard isn’t apt to rustle the doors disconnected a due desktop aliases mini shape facet PCs successful position of performance, but its AMD Krackan Point processor options ranging from a Ryzen AI 5 350 to a Ryzen AI 7 370 Pro should beryllium much than tin for agency activity and productivity apps.

In summation to cablegram options, the Eliteboard G1a tin beryllium configured pinch a fingerprint sensor and user-replaceable 35Wh artillery for an estimated 3.5 hours of artillery life. It tin besides beryllium outfitted pinch up to 2TB of retention and 64GB of DDR5 RAM crossed its dual SODIMM slots. All that successful a keyboard pinch 2mm cardinal recreation and weighing arsenic overmuch arsenic 1.69 pounds / 726 grams.
The detachable cablegram type sounds much appealing to my keyboard-pilled encephalon (as it’s what I’m utilized to pinch mechanical boards), but the Eliteboard pinch the attached cablegram has a spare USB4 larboard to use.
I cognize the Eliteboard is apt to conscionable beryllium utilized successful boring agency and IT environments, but I benignant of emotion it (even though I uncertainty I’d bask typing connected a latticeless membrane keyboard). I’m henceforth nicknaming it The Keyputer. My only wish is for a mechanical alternative, particularly if HP recovered a measurement to facet successful immoderate of the modularity from its new HyperX keyboards, and pinch hotswap switches.
The Eliteboard G1a is expected to motorboat successful March, but HP doesn’t person pricing. It estimates prices will beryllium finalized person to availability.
