Pros: I have had one of these for several months and just bought a second one here at Newegg because I could not find a better price anywhere. I have had numerous mini pc's and found this to be the best of the lot. First off, it has a fan and runs much cooler than the fanless type. Second, it uses a ssd so if there is any problems it can be repaired by loading a new os unlike the pc stick type that have a fixed drive and no option to load from usb or dvd. It is a full pc which can be worked on just like a large desktop. I have had no problems at all from the one I bought last year. I had Windows 10 loaded to a ssd but changed to Linux Mint and will have Linux Mint in this one as well. It is not quite as fast as my i5 desktop pc but is darn close. It is easy to work on and is sturdy as well as reliable.
Current price (for me) was $107.99 with $18 rebate and free shipping (Premier). That's looks the same as the other big online store but when you factor in their exorbitant premium shipping cost it is less. Newegg Rocks!

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: MEMORY: Not "Picky" at all if you use the right stuff. I am using 1.35 volt RAM contrary to the 1.5 volt RAM incorrectly suggested above. I am using 4 GB Item #: N82E16820239699 and it works great.

CABLE: The ssd cable attaches to the motherboard with the cable flush against the case and the pull strap towards the case interior.

BIOS: When using Linux or Win 7 the BIOS selection "Windows 8/8.1" must be disabled. No BIOS update required for Windows 10 or Linux.

Pros: Specs look good.

Cons: Others report that Cubis are very picky about memory.

Other Thoughts: Posted this pre-sales review to get more information. After thoroughly searching the MSI web site I could NOT find a Memory Compatibility List! Moreover, the other 'documents' (specs, user guide) were a total joke, almost no information provided to help in a purchase decision.
MSI - you can and have done better!

Pros: This is a great affordable little mini pc - it's running my PVR, Plex and just in general my media. It was a brilliantly easy setup, quite as a mouse and stays cool.

Cons: I haven't really found any - one bugaboo is that when you add a 2.5 inch sata drive, it's quite difficult to get the cable plugged in. But that's an extremely minor quibble
