I thought it was interesting untill I seen the price tag...

I mean if it included one of the top MXM GPUs MAYBE...

This would be a great example of using the slot (MXM) for a real NPU focused GPU. it'd be so niche but for AI use, maybe usefull? Imagine that MAC M4 with an external a-whole-lotta-flops NPU in here.

Damn, it's long overdue to create adapters and enclosures allowing external SSDs to work at internal SSDs speeds. How about electro-optical links from PCIe to SSD ? Even adoption of USB4 goes slow. No good USB4 adapters for Windows and Linux anywhere

Why MXM when you can make a full card box ?
