Would any micro form factor pc work? While I would never suggested Lenovo,.. their micro is about that size with 65w power supply... I'd go Dell or ANYONE else over Lenovo!
In theory, but Lenovo is typically 300% or more cost for the same thing. Lenovo we can get in country easily (they are about the only ones), but the cost is absurd. For these, in the US, prices are like $250!
I would never recommend Lenovo - to expensive for the hardware. But - it's what the office uses, I'd go HP before I went Lenovo...Unless it was free...

We've gotten two Lenovo's for free from Lenovo. Both were like $1800+ models. Both died really early. I'm literally diagnosing the dead hardware on one of them right now

Dang- that’s not good. The free I refer to is the: it’s had its life and it’s heading to the trash/ recycling bin. Drive pulled and ‘scrapped’. So it’s already several years old….
The models we are using now are running about $2100 and up.
