(It's pretty weird that you can put 128 GB RAM and 10 GigE in it, though. Sure, max out the RAM and networking, but CPU and SSD? Nah!)
The only thing I can think of is that they expect it to be used in small business offices, hooked up to a server (thus no big internal storage demand), but the user might still need fast network speeds and tons of RAM to throw at work being done? Does seem like a truly odd ball machine otherwise. Then again you’d want a more powerful CPU for demanding workloads. It seems designed entirely to push users upmarket.
