Ever wondered how much power you can squeeze into a space smaller than a closet? In this video, I show you the powerhouse Beelink ME Mini PC setup that runs my entire YouTube workflow — all from a space that’s barely 7×6 feet!
I’ll take you behind the scenes of my cramped but capable workspace, show off the mountain of external hard drives storing years of video content, and break down why the Beelink ME Mini is shockingly efficient for hams as well as creators.
Minimalist? Maybe. Functional? Absolutely.
