>repurposing thin-client computer hardware
I was actually thinking of this a few years ago. My workplace was getting rid of a bunch of old Win7 thin clients, they had VIA x86 processors and 4GB of ram. Never acted on it though.
- happymellon 4y agoI wouldn't bother. You can get things like a used Lenovo M70q which gives you the tiny form factor, upgradable memory, NVMe storage, 10G Usb-C and with a 10th, or 11th if you are patient enough, Gen i5 for £200. That will blow all these SBCs and thin clients out of the water. If you don't need 10th gen Intel, and are okay with 7th, you can drop below £100. It will be really interesting at this low end once they have to start competing with used Framework boards.
