Intel® Compute Stick
If this will handle scanner control programs and programming software, this might be quite handy!

quad-core Atom CPU, 32GB of storage and 2GB of RAM, along with a USB port, WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0 support and a mini-USB connector for power (HDMI power will come later). It will run $149

Kinda looks like the foundation of a Chromecast and Amazon Fire Stick ..... Curious to see some additional example uses listed. I can't tell what kind of connector it has on it but it might be pretty interesting to see an application where you can plug the stick directly into a scanner's USB port and do neat things with it.....

Probably HDMI. Or would make a great little server if it could be set up to run heddles.

I assumed that also given my Fire Stick and at least one of their example users (kiosk presentations) but the photo seems to show something smaller than a HDMI.

there is a Micro-HDMI, similar in size and shape, but close inspection will show it is different.
the DROID Bionic and several other DROID phones when it was thought using a phone to display on a TV With HDMI would be "Cool" had both Mini-USB and Micro-HDMI ports.

that intel stick, you can just see the USB Logo, so its a USB port.

except that thing was made cheap with a broken copy of Win8. the license used was "Invalid" meaning is was found to be cracked or a personal copy not meant for commercial resale.
