new micro PCs probably are poor value yes, but I bought an acer veriton 4gb ram micro pc on ebay, added win 10 ( but for £10 more I could have picked one with that pre-installed). USB3 ports, wifi on board, almost silent ( one tiny fan) all for under £100. i thought that was good value though I did not keep it. Worst feature was the case. That's the only time I have bought a PC and had to contact seller saying help, I cant get the lid off!
I also bought a lenovo one ( m83 or m93 from memory) but accidentally bought the next size up ( mini, not micro) PC with a DVD drive included. Kept that instead as my wife's replacement PC . i5 processor, 8Gb RAM, intel on board graphics. Does everything she needs
the dont buy a new pc buy this - offer is a bootable USB stick with linux pre installed ( dunno what flavour), it is aimed at people with zero knowledge, and the ad says just boot from it and its like having a new PC. Makes sense that you could make your own at a fraction of the price if you know what's what.
