Curiously, this is just dropped to half price:

Intel Next Unit of Computing Kit DC3217BY - UCFF - 1 x Core i3 3217U /
1.8 GHz - RAM 0 MB

http://www.saverstore.com/productinfo/product.aspx?d=1&product_id=20362832&rw=y


Why might that be?

Not selling or there's something else much better for the price?

(For myself, that is crossed off due to the fan cooling needed.)


Suggestions welcomed!

Cheers,
Martin
