The thread has the benchmarks, links to ebay searches, and lists of prebuilt machines (like the dells) that meet the requirements, since they're often the cheapest way to meet the spec (according to TFA). you may have to scroll up.

I just searched ebay for used celeron NUCs, and got lots of options like this one, with a 9th gen Celeron, for a hundred bucks. NB that the generation matters much more than the CPU, but some operations are still done by the CPU so if you can get an i3 or i5 it will make a marginal difference.
