Are You Looking for a Really Cool, Affordable & Useful Tech Christmas Gift for a Friend, Loved One or Yourself?
Just plug this little stick into your HDMI port. Add a wireless keyboard and mouse, or if you prefer substitute the mouse for a touchpad, trackball, virtual pointer. The result is a complete Windows 10 (32 bit) computer that you can put in your pocket or purse. It's only the size of a pack of gum.
Want to use your wired keyboard and mouse? You can, it does have a couple of USB posts, but remember, you will lose them for something else. Optionally, you can turn your Android or iOS device (ie: tablet or smartphone) into a remote command center with an app like Intel Remote Keyboard, Unified Remote Control, or one of the other many such apps.
In fact, the only cable you really need is the power cord to plug the Windows 10 device in with. But, you can literally take it with you almost anywhere on the globe, because it has an adapter for outlets all over the world.
One of the USB ports supports USB 3 for fast data transfers, while the other is USB 2.
It comes with 2GB memory and is powered by a Quad-Core Intel Atom Processor which in turn feeds graphics through an Intel HD Graphics chipset.
The networking capability is 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac wireless and Bluetooth 4.0, so there are no limits for networking.
There is a built-in 32 GB Flash drive, and it offers an expandable storage solution through an SDcard slot, so you can actually upgrade the storage as required, and with few limits (unlike a tablet or phone's set storage capability limits).
And as you may be using an HDTV or compatible display for it, why not take advantage of the fact that this thing offers NetFlix, Amazon Prime, iTunes, Hulu and more!
The whole device is an Intel product available now for Christmas, and it only costs $131.46 at Amazon, and Pime members can get it for just $119.99!
Windows 10 on a Stick

But, get this, there are actually others available, with upgraded processors, should you require something with some more oompf...
