Well, I realized why someone returned this Zotac to Amazon. It is dead on arrival, won't boot up even after resetting the CMOS. As much as I wanted something more "substantial", I gave in and ordered a Rasberry Pi2 starter kit. It just seems so remarkable that such an inexpensive device will deliver the performance I'm looking for.
Even under warranty circumstances? I mean, if the product is defective , the warranty should cover it, not just that usual 10 day return policy-because-you-don't-like-the product-thingy (or whatever the return period you Americans have , here in Europe it's 10 days)
