[ale] OT: micro mini nano PC

[Chuck Payne]

Intel NUC isn't just for windows, I have seen a tons of them running
openSUSE, Fedora, and Ubuntu. As long as you can do a secure boot
install, you can run Linux on them.  I have Gigabyte's Brix, the $99
which I have install 500GB and 8GB of Memory and I have install
openSUSE Leap 42.1 install on. Which I use to demo openSUSE.
