For this price I was expecting at least beetroot or a butter nut squash.

It is worth noting that the 32GB SSD inside this Micro PC is real SSD, not those cheap eMMC crap.

Jeeeez, want much?
What do you expect for potentially £105, with a monitor, with a mouse, with a keyboard, with a REAL SSD, with upgradable RAM, with gigabit LAN, with BT, with upgradable wifi card, with spare 2.5" drive slot, with proper Dolby support, AND with a licensed version Windows.
Obviously it's not gonna be rinsing Crysis for that money but come on, seriously?
