You might not remember Intel’s interesting Windows-based Compute Stick dongle announced at CES 2015, but Microsoft a similar computer-on-a-stick product to buyers in Korea. The Register reports that Korea’s local Microsoft branch announced the Lucoms PC-on-a-stick device (image above), a USB PC-on-a-stick that’ll ship with Windows 8.1 on board and that will be eligible for a free Windows 10 update when the operating system launches later this summer.
The stick measures just 110mm in length and weighs 46g. In addition to the unspecified Intel chip inside, the device packs 16GB or 32GB of storage and comes with microSD support for expandable memory. The dongle also comes with HDMI connectivity, a USB port for peripherals and miniUSB for power. In other words, it’s more than enough to turn any TV or monitor into a Windows machine.

I bet these tiny dongle based Windows 10 computers on a stick would be good for plugging into a pair of virtual reality glasses where using a laptop and desktop computer is too big and heavy for using with VR glasses while you also need to move around.
This PC also looks good for people who already own a TV or monitor with HDMI ports, so they can use this PC to watch video files, and do other PC tasks.
