intel compute stick?

 

Anyway, it has okay hardware for the price but I'm just not sure about the brand and whatever...

It lacks ram, and storage space, but costs less then a windows licence. Pretty much designed for someone wanting just a basic computer for web browsing.

all of these do not require you to use a company that sounds like china is watching you watch tv.
