Bad : Intel is only zoned for detached single family dwellings
Well, it is the symbol of a home, isn't it. Back when I was in kinder garden or elementary school, all the kids lived in apartments. Yet we'd all draw and paint pictures like this, not apartment buildings. Really, more of a cottage than anything else. Probably influenced by our culture.

Intel has disappointed greatly with their recent offerings. Manufacturing is still on 10nm when competitors are now on 7 and even 5nm (Apple M1).
You do realize that those are just meaningless marketing numbers (after all, they have to call it something) and that every manufacturer has their own. Intel's 7 nm is very different to TSMC's 7 nm. Just because they both chose the number 7 doesn't make them the same, even very broadly.

Good : Comes with house-shaped box for action figures or toy dogs
Bad : Intel is only zoned for detached single family dwellings
Ugly : Stacking box in closet

the retailers need more space because you can't stack up these stupid packages! 😂

Packaging may be cool but it doesn't sell products. You need more substance when selling computers.

I have bought several Intel NUCs in the past and was waiting very patiently for these NUC-11 systems to come-out. It was one too many delay after another and I eventually gave up.

Intel has disappointed greatly with their recent offerings. Manufacturing is still on 10nm when competitors are now on 7 and even 5nm (Apple M1). Performance is falling behind the competition. They're bleeding engineering talent, while developing an overly political corporate structure where technical people leave while legal & admin types thrive.

I hope this once great company can be salvaged, but not having high-hopes. I'm now looking forward to make the switch to AMD based NUC like products, preferably fanless.  Intel, you've lost me as a long-time & loyal customer, sorry!

Sad gimmick.
Don't let millenials design your products, you'll get THIS.

If you fail to innovate, you distract voters with 911 and invading countries for oil customers with meaningless, inflated and environmentally unfortunate packaging to draw attention to your outdated, inefficient products.

The CCP murdered me because I refused to put communist spyware in MSI products. I didn't commit suicide.

Well yeah, I also thought that. But if you just put two of these next to them, you can but the third one on top of them but upside-down. I think that's how these were packed on the palette.
I imagine so. You're still shipping a lot of air.

This must be incredibly irritating to retailers and the mail carrier.

It's cardboard and it can be recycle pretty easily. Also, its probably made out of recycled paper, too.

I'm all in for that design, looks pretty cool

That's cute for the customers indeed. But will affect the logistics, and, price as a consequence.

Intel is riding the "work from home" wave by literally turning the retail box for its latest NUC into the shape of a house. The NUC 11 mini PC introduces PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD support and Qi wireless charging for the first time in the series.
