I've got one at Forlongs that I'm playing with, for when we replace our thin clients. It's good fun, runs hot though ;-) I haven't tried installing Debian yet. E On 16/10/2015 5:46 pm, "William Mckee" <will(a)artcontrol.me> wrote:

Today I recieved an email from pbtech and was happy to see an ad for an intel compute stick running Ubuntu. It's cheaper than the windows model! Here's a link to the product - http://www.pbtech.co.nz/index.php?z=p&p=MBDINT10000&name=Intel-Compute-Stick-With-Linux-Ubuntu-14.04-LTS-ve

Of course the first thing I would do is remove Ubuntu and install Debian.

Cheers, William

Hi William,

the first thing I would do is remove Ubuntu and install Debian.

The Ubuntu version of the Intel Compute Stick comes with 1GB RAM and 8GB of Storage, while for $23 more, the Windows8.1 version comes with 2GB RAM and 32GB of storage. It might be a better deal to spend the extra 23 bucks and replace Win8.1 with Debian. cheers, Ian.
