This thing has a 14 inch LED screen never mind the actual computer part. How much energy do you think they can hide in a AAA battery?

The Gameboy lasted 30h. With all the improved processes and powering off the modern peripherals when not in use, I think the computer part should draw very little current during operation. The screen may require some compromises.

Tiny display + a lot of them didn't have a backlight. This laptop has a big display.

1. The Gameboy was powered using AA batteries not AAA which have about triple the capacity.

2. The Gameboy screen was LCD not LED, with no backlight, and had a 2.5 inch diagonal compared to this laptop's 14 inch diagonal.

3. Also if you read the article you will see a technical limitation was that the screen had to be run at full brightness
