Looking for small , inexpensive , fanless , P.C. for live Linux experimentation ......

Non - UEFI ?
I like experimenting with live Linuxes via USB .
With pre UEFI I could set the BIOS to boot from
USB first , and go from distro to distro .
The newer UEFI models ( even though there is
a supposed ' legacy setting ' ) seem to not be
able to work this way . Does anyone know of a
small ( mini ? ) P.C. that still uses BIOS ,
or does in fact have a working ' legacy ' mode ?
