          I will take a pic this weekend but as of right now it’s ‘on the bench’ and I don’t have a case as of yet. More than likely will be designed to attached to the wall of the cabinet and not in a case…

               Operating System Support:
            
                Windows 10*
                Windows 8.1*
                Windows 7
                64-bit supported only
            

            Under that I would also put Linux… I’m running Unbuntu on the machine currently which makes it much easier to run MM :)

              I would, and will at some point, use one of these in place of the SSD… to further compact things…

                Thank you. Yes i looked at cases but none were slim/small enough. Look forward to your snaps to see how yours look set up. What power source did you use?

                      I just found this one: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/librecomputer/libre-computer-board-next-gen-4k-sbc-dev-board-for/description
                      It may be an alternative. :)

                      If you cant find it, make it and share it!

                        @Snille Yes, very interesting. I liked the idea of comparing the boards with Geekbench. Maybe this is a measurable unit to compare.
                        @cowboysdude Are you willing to run such a Geekbench on your system?

                        Somebody backed this and is going to get a one?
