| * It does not have an "OS" in the traditional sense of the term that requires updates and care to maintain. To be honest, the idea of buying another laptop that I have to maintain system updates for, as well as generally make it happy and convenient to use with my own customizations, was not appealing. This was always a minor thought in the back of my mind, but this is solved by the DM250 simply by virtue of not having an OS to maintain at all. It obviously runs an OS, but it doesn't run macOS or Windows. | * It does not have an "OS" in the traditional sense of the term that requires updates and care to maintain.

For example, the GPD Win Max 2 offers a serviceable product, but it is still a relatively large device compared to the DM250. Further, it's also significantly heavier. | * It is significantly smaller than even the smallest devices I've owned or even considered for this task.

| * It does one thing and one thing only very well: typing and being a place to input text. It does not have "bells and whistles" other than a calendar and a dictionary. This makes it a perfect device for things like typing, typing, and more typing. It is not also a gaming device, nor is it also a web browsing device. In a way, the simplicity is freeing of other concerns, like what apps to install, what settings to configure, etc. | * It does one thing and one thing only very well: typing and being a place to input text.
