It seems to fit our all of hardware requirements[1] except for an
Ethernet port.  If one wishes to replace a router, an additional USB
Ethernet adapter is required.

Also, the Wi-Fi, which is likely from Intel, will require non-free
firmware.  This will require additional USB Wi-Fi (like all of our other
current targets).

In any case, it would be nice for someone, who gets their hands on it,
to test if our .img files (created by freedom-maker for virtualbox
target) work with it.  They ought to.
