Amazon price matched NE but with Prime shipping.
Gigabyte BRIX N2807

These do have a 2.5" disk spot. I wonder if they work with Linux? You could have GlusterFS nodes for under $200 each if you used cheap SSDs or 1TB WD red 2.5" drives.

I am having a hard time between Amazon and Newegg, Amazon just started charging sales tax for MN....
They both have charged in CA for awhile. Same price I never pick Newegg over Amazon. Amazon has more consistent delivery (with prime) and much better customer service.

These are universally reported to run very hot, right on the edge of "cook your drive" temperatures. Worth considering for use in a temperature-controlled environment and placed with open air on all sides, and only then.

This one got the HTPC community talking but Bay Trail video is weak sauce in that regard, which is probably why the heavy discount.
