What I found MOST disturbing was that I have watched MULTIPLE YouTube videos about mini PCs from ‘AceMagic‘. They have ALL RAVED about these mini PCs. No mention, whatsoever, of BLOATWARE — never mind malware.
So, this raises the whole question as to the credibility of YouTube reviews.
I have watched a LOT of YouTubes about mini PCs to help me make up my mind.
Now I worry that I have been hoodwinked.
I lucked out with the ‘Beelink SER6 Max‘ I bought. There was NO bloatware. Very clean Windows installation. My only gripe with that was the bloody Ryzen.
Now I am worried. Beelink doesn’t have an Intel mini PC that meets MY requirements.
Will I get burnt?
‘Beelink SER6 MAX‘ I got from Amazon,
with a Ryzen 9 9600HX.
The Beelink SER6 MAX worked, appeared to work VERY NICELY
— and I was getting quite attached to it.
Nothing wrong with the Beelink. I just HATED the AMD Ryzen processor!
NEVER GETTING AN AMD PROCESSOR AGAIN.
