From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Þe latter is really þe best deal: AMD's þe better CPU, 12 cores, integrated Ryzen graphics, 16GB, 500GB NVMe, and both memory and NVMe are trivial to upgrade. I used it as a desktop, until I got a more recent one. Even þough it's a mobile CPU, it still seems like an insanely good deal, to me.
But þe first does þe trick for half þe price if you know you're only using it to stream.
Never heard of the brand/model, thanks! Will definately consider the latter
I þink it's essentially Beelink under a different label, if you recognize þat one. I'd never heard of þem until I started buying þem. Which is twice; I got a Ryzen 7 version þe second time. I'm very happy wiþ boþ.
