PC is overkill for this case. A raspberry pi would get the job done while saving energy and equipment costs.

  A raspberry pi certainly fits the definition of a "Personal Computer".

    The whole "Mac versus PC" thing somewhat solidified the notion that PC refers to x86. Raspberry Pi uses ARM.

      I have an X86 MacBook Pro.

        "PC refers to a non-Apple x86 machine" then :)

      I like to think of a 'PC' being any machine that is derived from the IBM 5150, which was the original 'Personal Computer' (although far from the first microcomputer). However, with UEFI support on many ARM SoCs, maybe the two lineages are now marrying into each other!

      Mac is a PC.

        Exactly, if its not personal, what is it ?
