I think the x00 series are great candidates for cheap but reasonably performant thin clients too which I guess is either retro or ultra modern depending on if you refer to terminal/timeshare computing or Cloud/Virtual Desktop Infrastructure.

As someone who has a RPi 4 (with an SSD for storage, through an Argon case) as its main machine: Are you using your 400 regularily, maybe even as main machine?

My original Raspberry Pi 400 developed a problem with its USB ports. The computer would lock up if one nudged the attached cables even a little bit. It’s been sitting on the table unused for months, yet still I felt compelled to buy a new one. And the new one works great! But it’s still sitting unused because I’m too busy with other stuff.
