BUnger Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 I think I am giving up on EISY - too old school and cryptic for what I am looking for, which is fine. So I am either going to sell or potentially repurpose it. Does anyone know whether it can be wiped and a new OS installed on it ( debian, etc )? Link to comment
EWhite Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 im thinking it has a specialty BIOS in it.. which might make it difficult to do anything with. Link to comment
Andy P Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 You might want to get some help on what you find old school and cryptic from the people in this forum. But, to answer the specific question, I believe the EISY is worth more to be sold as an EISY than to try to repurpose. I come to this conclusion because of what @EWhite said about the BIOS but also, it is 8gb ram and 60gb storage costing $290 which I wouldn't want to run anything else on - although you could add a m2 nvme to that. But, you can get the Mele Quieter3q which is essentially the same box with 8gb of ram and twice the storage with windows installed for less than $200 on amazon. So, thinking find someone else who sees the value of the EISY if possible. Andy 1 Link to comment
BUnger Posted January 12 Author Share Posted January 12 Good question. Brand new is $290... so maybe $175 + shipping? Link to comment
