I'm very tempted to buy a Cirrus7 Nimbini

[unixman_again]

I've been thinking that I should upgrade my 7 year old PC soon and I'm very tempted by Cirrus7 Nimbini: Yet another mini-PC powered by Ubuntu

There are loads of customisation options available cirrus7 nimbus - mini-pc

 

I reckon it's a great looking machine, although I'd run an RPM based distro, probably Mageia rather than Ubuntu.

It looks really cool, although it's essentially just a Broadwell-based Intel NUC in a fancy case so you're going to pay more for that.
