This is something that has been requested since Matt’s original review of the mini-PC a couple of months ago. An unexpected question led to a rebuild of the machine by a friend's son, answering many questions about running it as a Linux-based Homelab server.

This video isn’t instructional; it’s about what you can do with a mini-PC like this one to create an environment to learn, experiment, and hone the IT skills that you’re most interested in, whether for professional or personal pursuits.
