This reminds me the 2008-2009 era where Mac OS X Leopard was running Hackintosh on Dell Mini 9 and some other netbooks.

At $349, it was almost a fully functional laptop that runs on Mac OS X (comparing to over $1000+ MacBooks or $1599 MacBook Pros)

Two friends of mine literally working remotely in an Africa trip with Dell Mini 9 and mobile hotspots and were doing video conferencing with Skype (on Wi-Fi).

Yep, started coding iOS apps on an EeePC 1000H on Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and XCode 3.1.something.

While the updates would break things, it was not more complicated than a Linux of the mid 90s to set up, especially with “hackintosh distros” like iDeneb. Surprisingly ok, given the anemic machine!
