Sad to see these go. I use one for my Nextcloud home server and am happy with it.

Minisforum is taking the torch from them. I just bought one from them which is essentially a NUC, it has a Core i7 and RTX 3070 mobile in it. It's pretty much a laptop without a screen. They make tons of smaller ones if you forgo the integrated high-end GPU.
Sad, I have one right now and it's great. Sleek small form factor with the power of a regular PC for not really that much more money is a great idea. I haven't been the kind of guy to want to build a big rainbow LED PC in a long time, I've been appreciating I can get a great machine the size of a large hard drive
I have been using a Beelink mini PC in my home entertainment setup for about a year. It has been very reliable and solid. No issues with 4k content.
What's the opinion about System76's mini PCs? I've just ran across them and thinking of getting one.

I've bought a few dozen of these things, shame to see them go.
My wife just asked me about a backup solution for pictures. Is a small pc like this onnected to network with some drives in raid the best option? Should I use to also replace our Amazon fire stick?

This is unfortunate, these NUC are inexpensive and reliable for the conference room.
Looks like they're trying to get 3rd parties to make them. Oh well, pour one out for the quirky little machine.
Great machines, I use an NUC8i7 as our HTPC. Supports 4K 60fps. Got it hooked up to a Denon amp for Dolby Atmos. At some point i hope I'll find time to look into Home Assistant, I'd use another NUC for running that.
AMD seems to be eating their lunch in small computers for consumers with their APUs in the Steamdeck and the more than a half dozen like handhelds, mini-pcs, etc. I'm sure intel will hang onto small embedded devices for industrial applications for some time but it's puzzling that they would just drop RISCV which seems poised to proliferate in this sector as well. It could just be that intel seeing that manufacture in China is and will continue to be very tricky has to narrow focus while they move their manufacture closer to home.
rip :(
