This workstation of mine is now 7 years old. One day, it's going to fail on me. 37,000 power-on hours for one of the hard disks!

Looking for a mini PC to get as the next workstation (something that works well with Linux).

Anybody have any recommendations? It doesn't need to have high graphics power (the most intense video game I play is Civ V).

I've currently an intel nuc used as an always on backup server and occasional workstation.
