$600 gets you 16GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. You can get better hardware for less.

Have you factored in the processing power and the cost of an equivalent processor?

Is there even a better ARM SoC? All I know of is the Snapdragon X Elites, which are either on par or slightly below the M4. And you can only get them in a laptop form factor at this point, cuz they cancelled the mini-PC dev kit.
