It depends on when big companies throws out their pcs, like when they are 5 years old, or so it feels.
I did a quick search on ebay, it probably depends on where you live but I stumbled upon a 55€ one here
The problem with tinkcentres (tiny here) is that they are really easy to open and service, usually has place for a 2’5 drive plus a nvme and had two sodim slots, plus some funky stuff like small cards and CD player and so on so eventually it might cost more than 50€…

Is that really a problem 😅
I’m actually in France, but somehow ebay is not really in my mind, so u totally miss those, I’ll have a look because it sure looks like less trouble to go this way than with the raspberry pi, even the OS as it would be a 64bits and not ARM (if I looked well on the specs)
(edit) also, now that I look at my setups I realize that I don’t even use much of the GPIo on the rpi4 because I have a stupid amount of Esp32 spread everywhere in my place that fulfill the need
