Homelabs

I'm considering buying this box for home server (and local hubble instance). I will run linux on it. Any thoughts? Looks like a great deal, but it's been many years since I bought PC hardware.

I would definitely double check Linux compatibility. It doesn't say anything about Linux support. Personally I would find a Linux friendly vendor with a similar machine and support that ecosystem.

Too late :-)

I did some research, it seems that it's working fine with Linux. Tbh, for most of the parts that usually may cause problems, like wifi or video, I don't care much, it will be a headless server connected to my router using Ethernet. And if everything goes south, I'll just gift it to my parents, it's better than the PC they already have.
