If Via wins prices with a Nano CPU and VX800 GPU combination, then why bother launching C7 based boards?
The market (and I) are screaming for faster-than-Atom CPUs, so Via needs to deliver what they have announced. I cannot understand why they let Intel feed and conquer the market while they sit on their hands or continue to launch yesterday's CPUs...
If you need a pc in a space constrained area this would be a great device. You can't stuff a motherboard or pc inside a glove compartment or inside a surfboard.
Best thing, it doesn't run "The Broken OS(R)" making it instantly usable.

Problem is, these small form systems still cost a bit more than desktops, as they should, so most people won't consider them, even for industrial applications. They'll just buy a cheap-o Dell desktop, abuse it for a couple of years, then toss it.

I was hoping to see a motherboard with Via Nano, but they're still running on C7 I see. What's taking so long? :)
