I think there's another option with a much smaller carbon footprint & much lighter on pocket. I only requires around 10 wattage per hour electricity usage (Wattage includes Modem electricity consumption also). Negligible wear & tear (EX: HD crashing due to sudden power loss) with almost same functionalities of like Open Source OS , Media Centre , Internet etc
Raspberry Pi (Wifi) (in place of NUC) + SDCard (In Place Of HD) + OpenElec Media Centre (In Place of Fedora). Connect it to your TV through HDMI port & access it's files through wifi, On Thu, Jun 22, 2017 at 4:59 PM, Temlakos <temla...@gmail.com> wrote: > 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.
