Not to be cynical or anything :-), but given how nice it sounds otherwise,
and knowing Murphy like I do, I assume it's in one of those zillion-pin
packages that are hell for hobbyists to work with, and it's set up to
interface to Intel processors and nothing else?  Oh yes, and it costs
$500 in quantity 100 and is on allocation?

(I'd be happy to hear that I'm wrong...)
