Intel NUC

We use a bunch of Intel Sticks.
Fedora tested well on them, but most run Win10 home due to some slide show requirements.

Scratch Pi it is still laggy with chromium due to low hardware.
However the NUC is bulky and I think overpowered and expensive, you need something in between.
I think there is many stronger Pi3, for tad extra cost, get one of those like Asus TinkerBoard

Any model recommendations for the intel sticks?

Make sure it has the 64GB storage setup as the smaller 32GB setups across all platforms are running into problems getting updates.
With the shorty Celeron NUC we keep a set of extra long screws that allows us to use the NUC VESA mount over the monitor arm/post mount. We use a 30cm/6" HDMI cable from the NUC to the monitor. WiFi or a cable works for network. If using a bluetooth (which is built-in now) mouse and keyboard the only cables running up there are power for both the NUC and monitor and the network cable.

Not an issue if you flush Windows and install Fedora Workstation instead.

I'm going to try the Chromestick first. at $80, it's worth a shot. Plan B will be an Intel Stick. Now I need to head to Costco to grab a TV!
