| I am currently looking at two NUC-form-factor barebones systems that use
| the 8th gen Intel i7, an Intel model available through CC
| <https://www.canadacomputers.com/product_info.php?cPath=570_7_1203_1157&item_id=130569>

$679.00
There is supposed to be one in the Etobicoke store.
They will move stock between stores for you; last time I did that I
had to pre-pay (fair enough).

| Can anyone offer any advice whether to go with one, the other, or neither?
| Are there better places to buy?

$634.99 (shipping free)
"Sale ends in 7 days"
(price also reflects $15 promo code which has unknown life.)

That listing lets you flip betweeen i3 / i5 / i7.  The premium for the
i7 looks reasonable.
