Are your other microcomputers capable of normal office operation?



100%.

I use them for development. One has ubuntu installed and the other Fedora.


Interesting. Can you give more details on your work? I've been on the edge lately over picking a desktop, an intel NUC or something like a Pi. Price to performance and power draw is something I'm considering.


Both I run JetBrains IDEs on both to do c++, rust, and .net work. One device is for work and one for personal.

Same here. A great advantage of such devices is they can later be easily repurposed to control home automation, audio system or make a simple DIY project with them. It is much harder with other types of hardware, like a laptop for example.
