A bit expensive, but something like this could be a worthy upgrade on the good old PC-Engine APU4 boards many self-hosters use.

    My APU4 running OpenWRT kinda struggles to run SQM on my 1.2gbps connection, cuts the download speeds in half, I wonder if this i3 could do any better.

      Very likely as the CPU and the Intel NICs in the APU4 are over a decade old now.

    It’s a good-looking device, but it was stupid of them to use M1 as the name when Apple’s got that name locked down as far as what shows up in a search engine.

    Pardon my ignorance, I’m just starting to learn some things here; what are the applications of this device?

    I love the fanless design. I have a four 1 GB board, it served me very well. No fans either.

    Dang, I was actually interested until I saw the possible non standard USBc port instead of a flipping barrel jack. Give me PD or give me a barrel jack.

      For a fixed installation I don’t think the power delivery mechanism matters that much. For something you’re moving around yeah 100% use a standard plug.

      any immobile infrastructure doesn’t really matter right, you’re going to set it up once and never move it
