Pictured is a Yaesu FTM-100D (Japan Model), the HRI-200 interface, and a Wyse 3040 Thin Client running Windows 10.
I’ve found that these Wyse 3040 Thin Clients work nicely as a standalone Windows “appliance” for ham radio purposes. They’re cheaper and run cooler than a Raspberry Pi and have more than enough power to run Wires-X or other ham software.
This specific model runs off of 12V/2A DC from the factory and uses the same size Yaesu DC barrel plug for power. It has 2GB RAM and a 16GB SSD, so I installed Windows 10 using the Tiny10 image. I have about 5GB of storage left over.
It works perfect for my use case.
Nice setup!
I love thin clients but I prefer to use them as Linux workstations or servers for ham radio. I find Windows 10 unbearably slow with less than 8GB of RAM, but I’m also the guy who has 50 tabs open.
Also, off lease Dell and HP micro desktops work well for a lot of things. I’ve got some running Allstarlink and a few of them running my home Proxmox cluster. The power connection is not as ham friendly though.
