Echoing what Russel said...(But cheaper)
I recycled a kiddies Dell xps13 with an i7 in it....
I didn't bother with the RAM - just upgraded to 1TB NVME, and a new battery.(NVME is MUCH faster than HDD/SSD)
The whole update cost around $100
Don't know about pixinsight, but it flies with AS!3, DSS etc.
1TB was enough for me - its sufficient for a few hours of planetary when capturing to .ser files -
1tb is effectively "infinite" storage for my deep sky - i typically delete the capture files once i'm happy with my final image.
