Remind me why we're putting mobile CPUs in desktop mobos again?
Being the devil's advocate, I can somewhat think of these potential benefits:
More energy efficient
Faster memory speed with soldered memory (which this one in particular doesn't use)
Allows for increased performance and cooling of those chips
Better integrated graphics
And maybe... hopefully... cheaper?
None of that is necessary in a desktop machine though...
