Quoting: CatKiller

Quoting: GuestThe thing is these small form factor machines are pretty cool for their size but they fall in a weird middle ground area of cons.

The specific feature of this form factor is that they can fit on a VESA mount so they have zero footprint. Like an all-in-one, but trivially serviceable: take one off, put another one on.

I always wonder: What would I do with the space spared under my table?
I don't get the whole class of devices, as I see the compromises made (choose some of performance, noise, extendability), but not the gain.

Ended up backing it. :)

Bought this on release day and looking forward to dive in. Looks cute, and the demo was nice as well.

Well, the good part for sure is that they feel the need to do this.

Quoting: EikeWindows 11 might play a role as well.

They already have more marketshare than linux :(

I think the implication was that a) Win 11 is both underwhelming and has high hardware requirement and b) if you're going upgrade/re-install to a new O/S, it's a good time to try Linux anyway.

Yes. While as a Windows user, I wouldn't care too much about official hardware requirements, there's been rumours like Microsoft not offering updates for non-conforming system (which would be many). Windows users are really "urinated against". I saw some users who said they will try gaming on Linux now for this reason (though it's not been more than I've got fingers on one hand ;) ).

That looks nice, though I'm not sure what you're doing in the game. :D

Quoting: EikeIf you look very close, it's even 6 months. ;)

Ooops! Even better. Fixed. Was too focused on the sudden surge.

I thought you've left out the small changes deliberately. :)

Not only is Linux above 1% for another month but we've now seen 4 months of it continuing to rise.

If you look very close, it's even 6 months. ;)
