I picked up a no name brand N100 for like $150, came with a (pirated key at this price point?) Win 11 pro license and am blown away at how capable it is. Could easily be a desktop machine for web browsing and office work. Would undoubtedly struggle with heavy electron apps, but really impressive. I even tried to run a few games on it, and it still handled everything surprisingly well.

It makes me look at my way over specced workstation (for significantly more than $150) wondering why I am burning so much electricity daily. Should use a micro desktop for the web and just remote into my beefy workstation as required.

I daily'd an n100 box for a year for browsing, admin and light media. Had a second running Plex headless.

Using stripped down versions of win iot, they were fantastic.

The oem keys are legit fyi.
