Xorg in Jessie may also help with the graphics. Just so you don't forget 
about it.

 Does anyone have something like this running Debian?  Any problems?
 
 * Graphics?  This has the Intel HD Graphics 5000.
 * UEFI?
 * USB 3.0 ports?
 
 As a side question does anyone know if it is possible to use both the
 display port and the hdmi for a dual monitor configuration?  Or a
 monitor plus projector configuration?

An interesting article.  They also review one with the Intel HD 5000
graphics and did not have any problems.  That is good.  Interestingly
they did have some EFI boot issues.  They were able to work around
them.  Perhaps later BIOS updates will already have that resolved.
Thanks for the reference.

 We only tried the HDMI port with the monitor. 

Cool!  That makes me much more comfortable.

Good deal.

 We are running Debian Jessie, because we were unable to get the
 ethernet card working in Wheezy (you can find a thread for a similar
 problem here: ...

 Yes, we are a running an multi-monitor setup, it works properly!

Excellent!  I will definitely be trying that out.

Thanks all of you for the wonderful information!

 I don't have any experience with this hardware yet.  My search fu is
 failing me looking for postings to determine if this is a supported
 system or not.  I decided I would ask here.  In the end I will
 probably just need to get one and try it.

Maybe you already looked at it.

Hi Bob,

we are using an Intel NUC Kit D34010WYK at the office
(http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16856102053) as
monitoring station.

 Does anyone have something like this running Debian?  Any problems?

We are running Debian Jessie, because we were unable to get the ethernet

here:
