From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

If you're just using ssh to another system you could probably use a tablet.
Thanks everyone who has suggested this, I had not thought of SSH to my main machine or even my server machine for this. Good idea. I am not sure about a tablet though because I want a keyboard. Since I would be ssh-ing into a linux machine linux on the little machine is not a must anymore.
There are keyboard covers for tablets - I have one on my Samsung Tab S9 and it works pretty well, depending on your expectations of a keyboard.
