Doesnt' seem sold anywhere. Also not sure $350 is a good price as you can find i3 nucs for 250 (then another $40 for ram and $50 for ssd); i think the mobile i3 is a bit faster than the pentinum; but perhaps i'm missing something obvious ?
1. They are not out yet.
2. Missing OS ($99 for Win10), which comes with the Braswell MINIX. So you're looking at close to $450 complete for the NUC. The i3 is definitely worth an extra $100 - if you need the power. But for a typical Office PC (Office & Internet) or mom/grandmaputer, a Celeron or Pentium model should suffice.
Also, that pricing is just rumored. The current MINIX Z64 models are sold at $159 shipped on Amazon, which is what makes them attractive. But even if the new Celeron model turns out to be $250, it's still a good deal because you get Windows 10 with a usable PC, no having to deal with a paltry 32-gig eMMC boot drive & only 2 gigs of RAM.
