Adafruit Fruit Jam – An RP2350 mini computer running classic Macintosh

This reminds me, I wanted the class of device that an iPod Touch falls into to be called "nano tablets" for a while in the early 2010s. It bugged me that it was basically a "phone" without the phone part. I hate to think you can only call something by its official branded name. Also, if you're using an actual phone without a SIM, it feels similarly silly to call it a phone.

That being said, I don't recall if anyone else did make something quite like an iPod Touch, and now it's dead as well.

Mini PC seemed to be the term that was being settled on, though I do see mini computer used where I'd expect to see nano computer as well. This is the first time I've seen anyone in tech use the term mini computer instead of nano, however.

Perhaps they're not teaching the under 40s what a mini computer is.

A lot of fun can be had with the “for parts” computers you find on eBay.
