Intel NUC7i5BNK (resonance)

Screen: 27" 3840×2160 (163 DPI, 60 Hz, 350 nits) Dell U2718Q
CPU: Intel Core i5-7260U “Kaby Lake” @ 2.2 GHz (15 W TDP, 3.4 GHz boost)
GPU: Intel Iris Plus Graphics 640
RAM: 16 GiB (2× 8 GiB 2133MHz DDR4 SODIMM)
Storage: 1TB Samsung SSD 980 (NVMe, PCIe3 x4, ≈12 of 32 Gbit/s)
OS: Debian Sid

Main workstation, in use since 2017 as a successor to carbon. The SSD lacks a DRAM cache, instead usig HMB (host memory buffer), but so far that doesn't seem to be a problem.

Accessories

Input: Lenovo Slim USB Keyboard – I bought a bunch of them back when they were still cheap, and am now dreading the day when the last of them has broken and I'll need to switch to something else.
Input: Wacom CTL-472-N M (“One by Wacom Medium”) – great for drawing onto virtual presentation screens and annotating / grading student submissions with PDF annotations in okular. Works out of the box on my Linux machines.

Medion MS-7728 (carbon)

To be filled by O.E.M.

RAM: 8 GiB (2× 4 GiB 1333 MHz DDR3 DIMM)

Main workstation from 2012 to 2017. It was still doing fine, but as I moved into a flat with a pretty small working space (just 4m²) I decided to switch to a mini PC instead.
