For $150 you can get a new mini pc with a low power intel cpu (e.g. N100) and 8GB of Ram. It comes with an SSD, a power supply and (gasp) a case. Add those to a raspberry pi and the price is not much different.

I have been looking at a N100, are they good in general as a Pi alternative. I am mostly looking at running K8s and running apps and running things like Pihole
I recently got a mini PC with an N100, 16GB ram, 512 GB SSD for €150, and am using it to run several docker compose projects. Basic home lab apps, such as nginx, home assistant, adguard home, vaultwarden (bitwarden), and actual and the CPU is at 4% and RAM is at 22%. I don't know how intensive K8s is, but I'm very happy with my setup and am surprised it's not breaking a sweat running all these things.
Could you post a link as well please? I am in the UK and lot of the posts talk about US links which seem to show much cheaper prices
