I've had N40L and N54L, still running one, and I would absolutely not suggest buying one. They're too old and underpowered, and they're honestly quite inconvenient to service. If you get one for free, then sure, but if you're going to spend money, you can get something cheap, more powerful, and easier to work on, like a used optiplex.
I was just thinking yesterday that I should replace my one remaining N40L instead of waiting for it to die.
