I really disagree that you can build the exact same thing for much cheaper. Taking into aspect specs, size, noise, etc.

Its looks like a great HTPC solution, but its not so cheap once you outfit it with memory, OS, and mSSD.

After you add it all up, not too bad but it would certainly leave me missing USB 3.0 at that price. Useful in certain scenarios, future-proofing for a HTPC. Nice form factor though.

If you're using the NUC as an HTPC, the celeron is a massive pile of fail thanks to its crap iGPU (does NOT support 3D). The HD4000 runs head and shoulders around it.
