I don't see the offer for 10% cash back in my PayPal account. I saw an offer for 5% but wasn't able to add/save the offer, it's the click on the link type of thing. Perhaps it's only for selected accounts?

Same here. Defective 5% offer and no 10% offer (I scanned the whole list on desktop and mobile app, it wasn't there for me).

I assume this can be expanded with a low profile video card (at least there is such an option in their configurator). Does anyone know if such videocard is available for sale separately?

Nope - I am using an older version (g5) - these are HP's answer to the Mac Mini - same size and everything. I love mine (I have my two previous ones stuck on the back of TV's in my game room for streaming), but what you see is what you get.

Well, this pic https://www.servethehome.com/wp-c...-Stock.jpg clearly shows that there is a way to add discrete low profile video card. Am I wrong? This will be my first HP Mini, but my experience with Thinkstations makes me believe expansion might be possible

If you want upgraded, non integrated graphics you'll have to find a store that has the ~$60-70 Thunderbolt add-on card instock and then get an external GPU.

Wow, never seen that before in previous gen's of the HP Elite minis.

I don't see the option on HP's customize build page though?

There's a port in the back that can be customized for an extra video output. It is not a video card.

FWIW, I have a couple off lease G6 models running Proxmox for home server duties. They have nvme drives for VMs and 2.5" SSD for raw storage. They only pull 65w max and really don't break a sweat unless I'm moving VMs. They were like $200 each when I bought them. Depending on how you want to use them, buying new might be overkill. Save money on the machine and buy storage/ram instead. You likely won't notice a performance difference.

Was sad about missing the HP EliteBook 865 G9 deal (https://slickdeals.net/f/16354948-hp-epp-hp-elitebook-865-16-inch-g9-ryzen-7-pro-6850u-16-1920x1200-... ) despite signing up for an EDU account until I found this one. Thought it might be a good deal as well for a home lab.

Quick question: how did you go about signing up for an .edu account? I've tried all the top Google search methods but they haven't been fruitful. Just looking for a sure fire way and I'm sure a few other would love the visibility.

I have a real edu mailbox, but I think your best bet would be eBay - you can get one there for cheap

You can add thunderbolt to these for relatively cheap after buying, unless they removed that ability in the most recent gens. I've done it and used it with external GPUs no problem. There is in fact an option for an internal dGPU (or was on the previous gen) but I don't recall the rules for it, it may not be something you can add on later.
