Looks like a tiny Compaq SLT/286. I'm digging the retro aesthetic, but if it's flimsy plastic like the DevTerm... what's the point? Other than I guess a one-off art project (which this may well be)?

Yes, it very obviously is.

I'm sorry, it's just that durability is itself a big part of the retro aesthetic for me.
