I was looking at small form factor PCs and found some of these Lenovo Tiny PCs.

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/114047401423

A few questions:
- Has anyone used these?
- is anyone duel booting Linux and W10 and in real world how big an SSD would you need assuming no media storage etc?
Cheers.

I use one for work (i5 8400T with 8GB ram, win 10, 500GB SSD). It’s pretty impressive as a business machine - basically silent and happily runs 2x 1080 screens.

Edit: Just looked it up and they’re more like £500 with that spec.

Looks like these ones on eBay are the thin client spec with a low energy Celeron chip so perhaps not as impressive as the one you use.

Quite tempted to buy one to use as a syslog server.

Yeah. There is that.

That's why I was thinking Linux, but still having W10 dual boot just in case MS Office is needed.
