I am a computer scientist, and I've been in the business since the 1970s.  I've seen the evolution of computers from water-cooled mainframes to this, and I have to say, this device just blows me away.  It's tiny, light, and quiet (it has a fan, but it's silent).  I hooked it up to a monitor, mouse and keyboard to get it set up for remote desktop, then put it in a closet.  I'm using it as a home automation server; it would also be great as a media server, or even as a desktop.  It comes with all the cables you'd need, and a mounting bracket.  You could easily just attach it to the back of your monitor and it would work perfectly.One thing that wasn't super clear in the writeup was that this device does come with bluetooth.  That's a plus for me.  I also like the fact that it has an expansion slot for additional ssd storage, lots of usb sockets, and audio and video (hdmi and display port) outputs.I'm also very impressed that this came with a Windows 11 license.  You can choose to run linux if you want - it's up to you - but I see this as a big plus.It's hard for me to get my head around the fact that for a very low price, you can get something that would have cost hundreds of thousands of dollars in my lifetime, and you can hold it in the palm of your hand.
