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.
That has not been my experience. Since it arrived broken, they are paying return shipping and will give me a full refund. Amazon has always given me great customer service when needed.
