Anyone use these and have recommendations?
Currently my laptop fills this kind of role being attached to a kb/m and monitor. I figure I could get a mini PC instead and free up my laptop to actually take around with me. It would also free up space on my desk that would have been used for a stationary laptop.
Is there anything in the $400 range with decent I/O, processing power, and wifi? I don't have any room for a desktop, but I need something faster than my laptop, which is an i5 x220.

I'm not sure what they go for now, but the Gigabyte Brix Pro (Iris Pro) was pretty decent.
Other option is something like an Alienware Alpha. The problem with the Alpha is that it only has a single HDMI out, where the Brix will run 2 monitors.

The Brix looks pretty nice, but I suspect their higher end models are out of my price range.
The Alienware is definitely overpriced though. They're asking $500 for a 4th gen i3.
>>53438893
The only good ones cost more than they are worth.
So basically, no. They aren't good.
Unless the space can literally translate into dollars for you, you're much better off buying something heavier.
Just bought pic related and I need yall give me some essential apps that I need to download. Because I don't know any besides my social media

Theoritically speaking, what would be the best switch for programming?
>>53437899
Probably blue as the audible click for the actuation point should lead to less typos.

How easy is this to accomplish? Do all you need is a radio transmitter to tune in to their frequencies or is it more complicated than that?
Easy to do hard to get away with. Nice triplicates btw.
So what kind of equipment would I need???
>>53437554
A radio.

So I'am thinking about installing fedora on my macbook, is that completely useless and silly or not? I have no previous experience with linux whatsoever so should I just buy a cheap laptop to experiment with linux or just go for it?
This guy has.
The only real reason to own a Macintosh is for the hardware+software integration so no. Probably not a good idea.

This.
Just use XQuartz if you want another DE
Windows 10 forced an update in the middle of me working on a project, rendering my laptop useless for an hour... I'm done.
I am going to install a Linux and only use that, I am not fucking with Windows anymore. I prefer to use a variant of Ubuntu, since it seems the most supported.
Here is my laptop:
Lenovo Y50
i7 4710HQ
Intel HD4600
Nvidia 960M optimus
512Gb ssd
3840*2160 screen
Programs I use most:
MS office (will switch to Google docs)
Spotify (supposedly they have a client)
CS Go
Teamspeak
NX desktop (for assignments)
What I need:
High DPI scaling
Multi touch gestures on touchpad
Optimus support
Very customizable UI
Secureboot compatible
Fast startup times (W10 is on the desktop in 2.3 seconds)
Compatiblity with NX desktop
I also really like how pic related looks, I assume it is KDE. So I am leaning towards Kubuntu.
Thank you for your help. It is much appreciated.
>>53436253
>Kubuntu
Nah that one's not in a good shape right now. I recommend installing Gentoo
Unless kubuntu got a lot better recently, use some other distro's kde implementation.
Opensuse maybe.
Just install manjaro then

Go to the playstore and find something that strikes your fancy. Honestly apps are not very interesting.

Switch to iOS by Apple is pretty good.

Best OCR software?
Pirated or free, doesnt matter but something decent.
>OCR
means Optical Character Recognition
so that you can have normal editable text from shitty pdf or picture scans

I used abbyy in the past.
It was really nice, you saw the pdf half of the screen and then you could manually edit all the places where it was in doubt.
I turned a 600 pages scanned pdf into a html document (which I then turned into a epub with calibre) in 2 hours without having worked with it before.
If you need to do it regulaly, you might want to use a free tool though.
