LMAO what a joke. N100 mini PCs are a hundred dollars less and vastly more capable aside from GPIO.

An N100 with no RAM is $100 less, but throw in 16GB of ram and now they’re $150+ more…

Also you’re missing the point.

Including but not limited to dual gigabit Ethernet (on a PCIe bus), NVMe slots, and a capable power supply is included in the box.

I lucked out having bought a few N95 mini PCs a few years ago. They were even cheaper then with 16GB of RAM out of the box. To me they're vastly superior to the various RPis I replaced.

I sold off my Pi 4s and never bothered with the 5s. I kept my mix of older Pis for projects that need GPIO and of those my Pi Zeros are the ones that really get used.
