i don't really get the point of this? Its a ITX motherboard with a moible chip. I could buy a itx board and a desktop chip for less. Or get a miniPC with the same chip for even less.

They are trying to disrupt building a PC, which was already modular and easy to upgrade, with a 1000+$ motherboard with soldered RAM?

A big part of this device seems to be trying to provide the memory bandwidth needed for high-performance local LLM inference, in a package that is more designed to be controlled by the user than the Apple Mac Mini/Studio that have so far been the best for such work.
