This is available today for $125+EHF+tax at newegg.ca ("shellshocker deal").

Newegg has a new delivery system called "InPost Locker" that works well 
for me.
- free (ground shipping would be $4.99+tax)
- delivers quickly to a locker at one of many sites.
- one site is a short walk from me, at my local Loblaws
- not all items qualify, but the Kangaroo does, at least for me

| Oops.

| We've been using ours as an HTPC, running Windows 10.  I booted Linux as a 
| test, and it seemed to work.
