To save you some headache, here's the URL you can give superbuy or any other similar proxy (not affiliated, just a happy superbuy customer): https://item.jd.com/10097209811046.html https://item.jd.com/10097209811046.html However, unless I am mistaken there's not much of an advantage over the Gem10 based on https://i.imgur.com/G9YNO6I.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/G9YNO6I.jpeg (who cares about that AI?) and that's already available at https://aoostar.com/products/aoostar-gem10-amd-ryzen-7-7840hs-mini-pc-with-win-11-pro-3-nvme-oculink-2-2-5g-lan?variant=47484035858730 https://aoostar.com/products/aoostar-gem10-amd-ryzen-7-7840h... and this one is LPDDR5 in case anyone cares about that. One more interesting thing on this page is https://aoostar.com/products/aoostar-t-box-intel-n100-metal-case-mini-pc4c-4t-with-w11-home-8-16gb-ram-256-512gb-ssd?variant=47203124314410 https://aoostar.com/products/aoostar-t-box-intel-n100-metal-... which is even smaller than a usual NUC yet quite rich inports and has a very agreeable price.

Triple SSD support. Sweet! Do you have any experience with these systems? And if you do, would you know how good their Linux support is?

  I don't have experience, it's the first time I read about this. I just extracted the link which keeps redirecting. I am possibly the worst possible person to ask about Linux experience with anything current. I have been posting since 2018 how untenable is running Linux as a daily driver which is when I stopped. I started using it as a daily driver in 2004. Overall I started in 1993 and still using it on command line (WSL) and routers and servers.

    Thank you for the update. > I have been posting since 2018 how untenable is running Linux as a daily driver which is when I stopped. User experiences vary, so to see. I've been running Linux as a daily driver at home and at work since 2012, and I haven't looked back. I've cursed the battery life on my laptop recently, but two weeks back the self-diagnostic pre-boot software on my Dell informed me that the battery was dead. So the culprit might not have been Linux after all. Oh, and count on an Nvidia update to randomly and regularly break your system. But that blame lays squarely on Nvidia.

Of course the problem is with drivers. Well and Bluetooth and Wifi and streaming DRM but I digress: I do not care whose fault it is if I can't work. Companies do not prioritize desktop Linux drivers , that's just a fact. And users will say "oh it's not the fault of Linux" as if it would matter.
