At first I was skeptical during the announcement and then I saw the amount of ram and the rack. Imho it is not for enduser but for business. In fact we have workloads that would be perfectly fit that computer so why not?

This is a standard a370 mini PC at a high price.

There's Beelink, Minisforum, Aoostar and many others.

Are they going to at least make memory modules available for those who want to solder their own?

[-] naonintendois@programming.dev 1 points 2 weeks ago

You can order those directly from chip suppliers (mouser, digikey, arrow, etc.) for a lower cost than you could get them from framework. Also those are going to be very difficult to solder/desolder. You're going to need a hot air station, and you need to pre-warm the board to manage the heat sink from the ground planes.
