I had one, running Linux. Gave it away to the OpenBSD project. The screen is just too small to be useful. The 12" MacBook, while equally anemic, is far more usable. Hopefully they make future M1 MacBooks that are lighter, the M1 MacBook Air is significantly heavier than the 12" MacBook.
I also have a Planet Gemini, the spiritual successor to the Psion 5, that I still have but to be frank almost never use. That would be a much better candidate for tiniest laptop in the West (it ships with Android but you can install Linux).
I've had a bunch of other similar ultra-compact computers with keyboards, from the Cambridge Z88 to the HP95LX and 200LX, Sony Clié UX50 and Nokia E62 and N800. The reality never matches the dream.
