From
Transport Evolved: Take 2.
Way back in 2023, Kate ordered a small open-source mini-laptop. And foolishly, she promised that she’d do an unboxing and review for the TE’s Take-Two, since it seems we have the occasional geeky fan.
…Unfortunately, things didn’t go quite to plan, so here’s the story of Kate’s unboxing and what turned into repair, not a review.
She’ll get to the review later.
