Inexpensive (used/refurbed) productivity PCs that can be had in "bulk" for extended family members. Ideas?
So, I'm that guy who ended up being the IT guy in the family while not being in IT.... I have some extended family members who could use a mini pc just for productivity use, nothing heavy. Potentially I would like to get them (or steer them toward) something cheap (sub $300), reliable and not necesssarily new. For example, I have a Lenovo ThinkCentre M720Q Gen 2 Tiny (Intel Core i5-11400T, Intel UHD 730, 16GB RAM, 512GB m.2, DP, HDMI, WiFi, Win 11 Pro), on my desk for certain coding tasks I don't want to run on my workstation. Dell, HP and Lenovo have many produces that might be suitable, but it's really not my space. Ideally, I would like to RDP into them to do update tasks occasionally, but perhaps some of these are also meant to be used with other management software. Any thoughts are appreciated.
