    Noticed two very interesting accessories recently that technically don't fit into the accessories section. They are stand-alone systems as well!

    Mouse Box, a mouse with a SoC in it. Surprisingly it seems to be running the ARM version of Ubuntu desktop in the demo video.

    OneBoard, a Cherry keyboard that's also an Android system.

    For people who need a more powerful system and maybe X86 for Windows/Mac, it should be technically very easy to fit a mini X86 PC into the OneBoard keyboard. The mouse would be a bit challenging if you don't want the lowest possible specs.
