I got few of these came from working environment. As part of contract,
date wiped and nothing installed. I had a look around and stripped one
and it is basically a small PC with Intel Core i5 processor, 4GB ram
and 120GB SSD installed. These were used for playing media contents on Signage monitors and according to leaflet can output to 3 monitors and
accept live TV input.
This is what I found in side:
Intel Core i5 750 2.67Ghz processor
2 x 2GB 1333Mhz DDR3 Ram modules
1 x 120GB Kingston SSD (one spare SATA slot on MB)
1 x Hauppauge Win TV HDR-1275 card
1 x AMD FirePro V4900 Graphics card with 1 x DVI and 2 x Display ports
3 x USB ports
1 x NIC port
1 x RS232 Port
1 x sound out and 1 x Min in ports
Have rack mount lugs
Size: L: 380mm, D: 280mm, H: 45mm
I am sure windows can be installed easily and might be useful to
someone.
If interested message me please.

I think the difficulty is that these run Windows Embedded and you
would be selling them as data wiped to meet the client's expectations
of you.
So its not clear that these devices can actually run linux or Windows
11.....
And another related issue is are drivers available for all the
hardware within? I did have a look and drivers are not easily
available from RMG networks.
I also seem to recall there has been some compnay changes so RMG
networks is now Korbyt
Or even where one can get Windows Embedded from to do the reinstall of
the OS.

Not Win 11 (without the hacks) but I'd expect Linux or Win 7/10 to work - it looks like a regular PC spec from ~2011. Assuming there's no 'weird' hardware in it, but I don't see why there would be. (the TV stuff is the weirdest, but that appears to be a name-brand TV card, which you may be
able to find an image of the install CD for)
To test it out, Raj could throw a Win10 installer USB at one and see if it boots.

At least Win10 should download all the drivers for you I'd have thought?

The main problem is what would you use such a 13 year old PC for? That
there isn't a more modern / smaller / lower power alternative at a similar price point.
