Shuttle skimping on the hardware

It's been a while since I looked at anything Shuttle did. I briefly got excited when I saw they had a nice petite Atom-dual-core micro-PC system. Unfortunately my excitation died when I noticed they had completely skimped on the graphics and omitted an e-SATA connector. Come on guys, if this had X4500 and an e-SATA port it would be a killer system, as is it is a looking like an overpriced shiny toy. If I really want a low-power server I can do much better - and if I want high power small form factor Intel has a mini-ITX board that has way better specs taking regular dual and quad-core parts. Sigh.
