So in the wee hours, like 4:00 a.m., of Friday morning, yes Friday the 13th, my ancient Dell Tower shut down in the middle of work. Got the infamous yellow/orange blinking power button. It's likely either dust or a spider got in there & shorted something out. They're notorious for front side USB pins shorting w/age so I should eventually check that too.
Instead I set up the CTone T8 MicroPC I picked up like a year ago at $120 & been waiting. Got most everything up & running on it in 8/256GB.
