Given your previous posts, this doesn't surprise me. You and searching 
the internet just don't seem to go together:

That took like 3 minutes to find.

I can understand a Windows user being upset about this, and yeah, they 
shouldn't have done this, but you're like the first Linux guy I've ever 
met that is having a fit about having to install it. Most prefer it.

Oh, here's Chromium too in case you want to play with that on your Mini:

?! What the #$%^? You're OK with installing on an ASUS which doesn't 
provide the Linux ISO you want any more than Dell does? You make the 
biggest issues from the smallest problems.
