Everyone:
Does anyone have experience with installing Fedora on a NUC?
In case anyone here doesn't know what a NUC is: it happens to stand for
Next Unit of Computing. It is a 5.4 x 4.9 x 4.5-/inch/ box having the
minimal number of components to support desktop functions. You equip it
with your own hard drive, keyboard, mouse, etc., and can drive up to a
4K Ultra-style monitor. Some people use its VESA mount to mount it on
the back of their TV. Result: instant smart TV--smarter than any TV in
the store, because it can handle word processing and regular Web apps in
addition to video and audio streaming.
Word is that it normally ships with Windows 10, but can support any
number of distributions of Linux. I want to know whether Fedora is one
of them.
It sounds like the ideal small office/media lab/home theater solution.
Pair it with a good NAS and you have all the computing power you need,
with a fraction of the physical--and carbon--footprint.
