Bought this 4th gen NUC and not the 5th since I already had a spare mSATA drive and for the task in hand was plenty to stick to this older gen even with an i3 processor ; Tiny footprint, silent and low power consumption as an HTPC. Yes silent even...

Not cheap but it serves the purpose ; I'm expecting this to last at least 4 years ; Not giving 5 stars since the first one I ordered arrived DOA. After a session on the phone with Intel where I troubleshooted it, they said the first unit was defective

Small footprint, virtually no noise, and very low power usage. Great for an office environment because there is very little inside to go wrong

Don't even try to run anything but Windows8 on this box. Intel finally put out Windows7 drivers because of user complaints, but don't expect them to work as well as the Windows8 drivers ; Don't try to put windows server on the NUC. Don't try and run...

Nice, fits well in my kitchen, a nice low profile. Works well... fast ship... good price... I won! :)

This unit is very well made, and easy for a beginner to set up ; The ultra small footprint is what you are paying for ; Perfect for HTPC, except the remote control issue

By the time you have added memory, a WiFi, and some disk solution, this is NOT an inexpensive choice for a media player. Capable, yes, but cheap, no ; I could not get the IR working under Linux, despite others having reported doing this. It is possible...

Small. To be honest this is the main reason I bought it instead of building a custom rig. Space was kind of at a premium ; As far as performance goes, it boots up really fast (with SDD), no problems with online streaming. It can stream full HD movies...

Ethernet drivers aren't natively supported by windows 7 so I had to download them on another computer and install them via flash drive. Oh well. Could be worse. Some people have complained about problem with driver support for windows 7. I haven't had...

Small,quiet....This unit once I installed the Samsung msata and Gskill so-dimm memory is incredibly fast! It's size has helped with space in the kitchen. The unit feels cool to the touch

Can't think of any for a kitchen pc. It can do everything our large kitchen pc could do in 1/10th of the space

Great, small form factor system that works well. Small space. Light weight. There are many after-market cases available to convert this to a fanless system

Mini HDMI/Display Port connectors are annoying ; Computer will not start without a monitor attached ; NOTE: Some monitors (like both of mine) must be POWERED ON to be detected. Also, the correct input must be selected on the monitor (HDMI/DisplayPort,...

I have purchased both the i5 and i3 versions (using an SSD with the i5 and a HDD with the i3). In the case of the i5 we wanted something that could be put on a moving track and deal with the shock of sudden starts and stops (hence the SSD) and take up...

This is really more about expectations than negatives: There are low-power i3 and i5 chips and they are nowhere near as powerful as the regular desktop versions are

Speed ; Size ; Newegg deal came with RAM ; Makes a great HTPC

Expensive once you add all your parts ; Included directions are bad
