    SD card, sure.

    Old phone charger? Might not be strong enough to power a Pi 4/5; this isn’t the Pi 3 days with a microUSB.

    “… and I’ve got a 3D printer.“

    Yeah, you’re “ahead” of most people with that one.

    This i5 could probably handle it, and you’ve got $$$ left over for an SSD.

        Agreed.

        Was proving that you can find a half way decent machine that’s more capable than a Pi5 at the same price point (~$100)

          Oh yea! Even that 6500 with a 1050 or even a 1030 crushes a PI. I have 4 1030s laying around for such an occasion.
