Finally got around to booting up my brithday present, a Beelink mini
computer.

(8GB DDR4 RAM 256GB SSD GKmini Desktop Computer, Support 4K@30Hz Dual HDMI Display, Gigabit Ethernet, 4xUSB3.0, Dual WiFi, BT4.0)

Replaced Windows with Ubuntu and this little sucker FLIES! Running my
BBS, browsing, music, VS Code, Discord/Element, etc.

Really impresed what a $210 mini PC can do.

Def. more expensive than a Pi, but doesn't chug like my Pi 4 does. Still
love my pi tho :)

Appears to be a nice alternative to an Intel NUC -- nice specs and good price!

I can never tell from the advertising if it is possible to replace Windows
with linux on these, so good to hear that it is not a big deal. ;) Glad
you are enjoying it.

? I was wondering, what is Linux Windows? Or did you leave out a period after Linux?

It was somewhat of a learning curve when I did it back about 20 years ago.
It may not be as big of one now that more things are available for linux.
