I have an old Mirage 11.6"; runs Fedora 25 Linux really well - it is light and easy to travel with. But there's no obvious replacement available! The smallest is a 13.3" laptop which is ENORMOUS in comparison!

I move around a lot in my work so my Skyfire V follows me around on planes, airports, hotels, thrown in cars etc. It's always in a nice padded Timbuktu bag there is a special section in the bag for laptops so chargers etc are in a separate bit I don't remember any impact that created this - but...
