Description
Intel Core i7 Linux Desktop PC
UK STOCK READY FOR IMMEDIATE DISPATCH!!!
Our first Linux desktop PC, designed to be energy efficient and ready to go out of the box. We’ve fitted the desktop with a high performance NVMe solid state hard drive and 16GB RAM, meaning you’ll never need to worry about your system slowing down or running out of memory.
The space saving mini tower takes up less space on your desk and it’s beginner-friendly so if you’re new to Linux this desktop is ideal. Linux Mint is the most beginner-friendly version of Linux and we ship the desktop with Linux Mint installed unless you request otherwise.
Easy switch from Windows
No need to worry if you’re switching from Windows, Linux Mint is easy to use and shares similarities with Windows. You can use it for your every day tasks without needing any programming knowledge.
Browse the internet, send emails, watch movies, create and edit Word, Excel or Powerpoint documents as you would with Windows.
Reduced Operating Costs
Reduce your overheads with our Linux desktop, there’s no license fee for the Linux operating system, even for commercial use.
Thanks to its energy-efficient design, our Linux desktop not only helps reduce environmental impact but also leads to lower electricity bills.
The LibreOffice programs similar to Microsoft Office are completely free of charge and offer the ability to save in MS Office formats (docx, xls, ppt).
Enhanced Security
Linux is so secure, you don’t even need an antivirus. However, we recommend using antivirus software for extra security.
Your home directory is encrypted as standard, so if your computer was physically stolen there’s no way the security of your files would be compromised. Linux is also open-source, which means you have full access to the source code and can view and modify anything yourself.
You own the system and there’s nothing that can be hidden from you.
Warranty & Support
We provide a 2 year return to base warranty (parts and labour) as standard including full expert support, and we also offer extended warranty up to 5 years.
