    This is like one of those giant laptop servers for very remote locations.

            Well, it’s a giant laptop server. Basically, you have a team in a remote location, they need some file services or something and the internet isn’t going to be good enough. You send a server monkey with one of these to set up a network and some basic services like file sharing, when the project is done you pack it up and bring it back to home base.

                I don’t think that I’m making this up or anything. https://www.getac.com/us/products/laptops/x600-server/
