It's a great device. Power efficient, standard x86_64 Intel so great Linux support, lots of expansion options for USB and M.2. Making a carrier board for the Mu is definitely not for beginners though. It's got loads of high speed I/O lines. Even actual engineers find high speed PCB design daunting. Also, the functions of those HSIO lines are hardcoded into the firmware. You need special BIOS builds for a board with PCIe or USB 3. Change too much stuff and you're going to have to ask the manufacturer to support your configuration.
