I beat the rush by a couple months. I have a i7-6700 in a HPz240 SFF that is clearly faster than some of the Celeron / i3 units that were OK’d by MS and the EOS for Win10 pushed me to Linux. Works well. I have 32GB of RAM in this machine, so it’s likely to last quite a few more years before it really becomes too slow for Linux.
