It's not a consumer product. It is being made for stuff like terminals and so on. That's why the company who has them in China didn't really want to send Linus one.
It's practically exactly the same thing (GPU heat sink and all) with a newer GPU on it.
It's not designed for an end user, that is why the IO is all weird. Could you use one? yes most probably. Would it be a good idea/cost effective? no. You'd be much better off with a Latte Panda or something.
