Thanks Rick,

Intel NUC series NUC7I5BNK Gen7 Core i5 - so Kaby Lake i5-7260U processor

BIOS updated on 3 Feb., just prior to installing ASCII with:

BIOS Update [BNKBL357.86A] dated: 1/14/2020

A reboot leaves the syslog and kern.log files at about 9kb with only one ACPI 
error in each.

Good enough for me :-)

Ho hum.
