Unfortunate, but understandable.Intel did some amazing mechanical design with the NUCs. But the fire breathing power hungry x86 ecosystem really doomed the project. The inefficiency has finally caught up to it. CPUs and gpus both simply are too hot now for a Mac Mini form factor to ever exist in PC space without sounding like a jet engine.Hence why Intel NUCs kept getting more SFF like and less NUC like.
