Someone should make a Nintendo Switch-like PC that runs Linux; a full desktop-strength OS with a touchscreen UI when in mobile mode, that you can dock at home, or into a laptop-like chassis you can carry around (like Apple's Smart Keyboard), and get the full desktop UI.

The home dock would have more powerful, user-customizable and user-upgradeable hardware, and the OS should seamlessly handle the transition.

BQ put out an Ubuntu tablet that is similar to what you're talking about, I've heard bad things though. However that is the goal of Ubuntu for mobile.

Which sadly no longer exists. :(
