Interesting.

The listing says US$84.94 + US43.97 shipping.  A little more that
$200.  Much worse that two M93p units!

But I know that one can stumble on much better deals for these.
You've got to know what you are buying too.

This one is described here.  It is the best one listed on this page.

I don't remember for sure, but I think that the C7 is missing some
instructions that current kernels require.  CMOV?  I might be wrong:
it could be that most distros compile kernels this way but that the C7
is still supported upstream

Is the video controller supported by X or Wayland?

No USB 3.x

1G of RAM is tight these days.
2G of flash isn't enough for anything I'd want to run locally.---
