I needed to setup a linux server and was looking for a desktop computer.  My system won't be running games or anything to intensive but wanted at least 8 MP memory.  This was the first I'd really looked at small-form PCs and decided for the specs and the price it was worth the try.It is so small that in I almost sent it back right away thinking it was too small to be more than a toy.  But I decided to give it a try and was pleasantly surprised at how well it performed for its size and price.Another nice benefit is that it runs completely silently.  It must have some kind of cooling because it does not get hot.  If it does have a fan it is very very quiet.As mentioned, I was setting up a Linux server so I replaced the Windows that came installed with Ubuntu.  Boot from USB was already configured in the bios, so all i had to do was put a Ubuntu USB installation thumbdrive in to perform the install.One concern I have with the small design is I'm not sure how easy it will be to make upgrades.  I was hoping to put in a larger SSI drive and upgrade the memory but it is likely going to be more difficult due to how compact the PC is.
