My mother needs simple email access and a little web browsing and this is a great solution for her. Very easy setup and it works great. No need to keep the system updated; it just works with no fuss.

Asus Chromebox 5a, C67-S1 i5-1335U model CPU: * The CPU is excellent for running ChromeOS with a Linux VM. Everything is snappy with tons of tabs and VSCode running. Not the best for heavy Linux loads, like large compiles / video transcodes. Video: * The display port can go well beyond the advertised 4k, I use it at 7680x2160 @ 120Hz. (It can probably do 8k @ 60 fine.) * The HDMI ports are unfortunately stuck at 4k. You can use an 8k DP->HDMI cable but it's hard to find a good one. Memory is upgrade-able, mine came with 2 sticks of Samsung M471A5244CB0, I upgraded to 64GB of Crucial CT2K32G4SFD832A. (The ARK spec for the CPU says it should be able to go up to 96GB, but 48GB sticks were way more expensive.) The NVMe SSD is upgrade-able, mine came with a FORESEE XP2000F128G, I upgraded to a Crucial P3 Plus 500GB, reimagined, and was good to go. The Wifi card is removable but I don't know if there's anything you can replace it with. Mine came with the Intel AX211NGW which was plenty good enough. It has two internal antennas.

gret valie and quality
