John, from what you and Roger say, it does sound as though one can probably do some stuff (upgrades) in these things. That noisy drive, I would imagine, could be swapped out for an SSD. However, I would bet they are relying on on-board graphics, sans graphics adaptor. The latter would make sense in the lower price point models, for sure.

At this juncture, I am going to take a look at building a small form factor box. However, at present, I am totally ignorant in this category. Any experiences to share? All are welcome.
