These sound like a good option - just make sure that the Ethernet port
is at least 100Mbit/sec.
BTW - just got this link through Google Ads while replying to your
message - not quite the "give me your poor, your tired" stuff but
rather the other end of the scale. On the other hand - it's just
300US$.
Also I see that it has (BIOS-controlled) case fans so there are
probably quiter options.
