I like everything about this Chromebox. It boots up quick and it is very quite. I upgraded the ram in it and now it has 8gb's and I also put a 128gb ssd in it. It is not necessary to do these upgrades because 4gb of ram and 32gb on storage is plenty on chrome OS. The first thing I did when I booted it up and log in was put it in the beta channel. I did this because in the beta channel linux apps is now supported. Having a terminal is a big deal to me.  I have two monitor hooked up to the Chromebox and it does well. I know this machine is not a power house, but for me it works great for what I need. I've been doing some python coding on it thanks to it supporting linux apps. Anyway, I am happy with this purchase and I recommend it.
