16 Gb system ram... i'd bet that they originally planned it with 32.
Note that you can order more storage but not more RAM. Although that may also be to force vendors to target this exact architecture.
Also: oooh internal power supply! Someone thought about elegance too.
You can upgrade the ram yourself.
You can, but why would you when all steam deck/machine certified games will run fine on this hardware?
Unless you buy it because it's an x86 based mac mini. That may be true for quite a few early adopters, who knows.
You probably can. Not sure target market can.
