For £327.53 ex-VAT, the ThinkCentre M60q Chromebox is a sensible buy **only if you’re genuinely buying into ChromeOS**. In day-to-day office life—web apps, email, spreadsheets in the browser, Teams/Zoom in a “works fine” way—it’s dependable and easy to manage. Lenovo’s business line also tends to be better than random mini-PCs in the things that matter to IT: build quality, sensible firmware/support, and it feels like the sort of box you can roll out without drama.
That said, I wouldn’t buy this for users who need “real” Windows desktop behaviour, heavy offline software, or lots of local storage for media/project files. ChromeOS is great, but it’s also a constraint—if your workflow depends on desktop apps running locally, you’ll feel it quickly and you’ll end up spending more to replace it. Also, with this class of Chromebox hardware, it’s best for light-to-moderate workloads rather than multitasking power users. In short: **buy it for email/web/office workers and admin-managed ChromeOS deployments**; **skip it if you need a general-purpose Windows workstation** or offline-heavy usage.
