I plan on buying one soon, love the small form factor.
I am not unless it comes in a barebones kit like my old Intel nuk when bf 3 or 4 was new.
It's crazy what branding can do to sell useless cubes with less gaming ability than a thinkpad
I think my Intel nuk was 700 dollars after I bought all the parts for it l, it was primairly for battlefield 4, and minecraft, and it ran worse than it did on the ps3.
Maybe with inflation you can say its similar price to performance of steam machine. But there has definately always been idiots like me who like form factor.
I'm still not getting one unless its barebones for ~550 USD, but I'm the type of person who wants one.
