Right but surely you still need a CPU and RAM at the very least to process the Remote Desktop connection.

I bit of ram, but then I'd imagine you only need some purpose built chip for the connection, input and display logic. Effectively you'd need little more than a chrome cast-like device.

Chips of any kind are the issue. All the silicon fabs are being diverted to cover these insane datacenter orders. Like they're backordered out over a year at this point. All to boost a tech bubble for a product that doesn't work
