Just scored one from the dell outlet store certified unit for $95 shipped. Price was $139 - $50 coupon (esc$50$299) plus tax.

RE: Intel-specific HTPC/NUC Selection w/reliable MVC 3D ISO - hdmkv - 2016-04-08 Nice deal... sucks as I paid $125 for used. It's almost a no-brainer at $95 as there's nothing to assemble, comes w/Win 64-bit, 32GB SSD and 2GB RAM. Wish it had 4GB for RAM, but seems to matter not for Kodi/MVC use. Some of the old stock 3050's still have Win8, but it's a free upgrade to Win10 anyway. @sarcoptic, have a direct link? I'm not seeing it in Dell Outlet.

Or, Dell Small Form Factor tower. Why aren't there other NUC-like mini boxes w/this Celeron? Edit: I'm seeing some on eBay and NewEgg... - Pegatron - Funky looking Foxconn unit - Habey Only heard of Foxconn out of those... better to stick w/Dell. Hopefully goes on sale again.

Some of the old stock 3050's still have Win8, but it's a free upgrade to Win10 anyway. Unfortunately they go really quick when in stock. You just need to keep refreshing as stock goes in and out: Dell Outlet USA It should already be sorted by price low to high. If its not at the top just keep refreshing. It took me 20 minutes before one finally popped in. Good luck and hope more join in RE: Intel-specific HTPC/NUC Selection w/reliable MVC 3D ISO - movie78 - 2016-04-08 (2016-04-08, 18:29)sarcoptic Wrote:(2016-04-08, 16:05)movie78 Wrote:(2016-04-08, 15:45)hdmkv Wrote: Nice deal... sucks as I paid $125 for used.
