From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Huh. Maybe I have the model wrong; I've had it for several years. I'll have to pop the case tomorrow and check. In any case:
whichever model it is, it's definitely ARM. I bought two at the same time for a home automation project, and one had since kicked the bucket.
Re VAT: oof. I got 64GB RAM for mine for only a little more than your taxes. That's rough. Good luck, whatever you choose.
I have no clue. I just typed in the name into google. Maybe it showed me the wrong specs. My numbers would be off then but I don't really care because I don't want to buy one be that as it may.
Hehe. Yeah thanks for the link anyway. I can find the same or a similar product on Amazon Germany and it will be significantly cheaper.
I just haven't decided yet if I want a mini pc in the first place. I always wanted one of those Ryzen 7000 in my laptop. I could use that money and have it contribute to one of those current framework laptops.
Odroid has both ARM and Intel boards in their lineup
