Of course, that thing was way more expensive, but even today, it'd crush this thing in performance. I was also interested in tiny mobile PCs that didn't suck and ran "full" windows. I was super excited about netbooks, but those had anemic performance with the original atom line(s), the Surface Pro 2 was a near perfect machine in my eyes (when it came out), but it was bulky and battery life sucked. With the improvement of the Gen 4+ intel mobile chips, the ultraportable form factors got really nice, but manufacturers moved away from the super compact machines (still talking about full windows feature sets here). The new Surface Go is pretty good, but also running low end CPUs. The one differentiator is that the low end CPUs are actually decent these days, but now that there's ultrabooks and 2-in-1s, I feel like the draw of machines in this form factor just simply aren't good enough to live with the compromises - namely display resolution, touch sensitivity, and foldable, compromised-layout keyboards.
One of these, and install DOSbox on it
