Third, it looks like there are problems getting Linux running on
these, which does not bode well for getting Qubes to boot:

You are going to run into these types of issues with these inexpensive little
machines where the manufacturer puts in just enough effort to get Windows
running on it. Plus, a good number of these machines have problems booting
anything other than the Windows OS it shipped with, as demonstrated by that
last link.

If a computer is not already Qubes certified or on the Qubes HCL, its
good practice to look for it in a Linux HCL as the second step. Although
I'm not aware of many lists that are well-maintained, the Ubuntu HCL
appears to be the most comprehensive by far. One can also check with the
manufacturer to see if a particular model was designed to work with
Linux. Using these resources will improve the chances that Qubes will
work well on a computer model that is not on the Qubes HCL.
