With those specs, I am almost scared of asking - how much did it cost?

You won't get the ryzen. However, you could go a lot cheaper on a smaller build with an IntelNUC
I've been planning how to take my pinebook pro and swapping the sbc with a nuc motherboard. With some 3d printed parts it'd only add a couple of inches but lots of room for lipo's. Though I'd prefer an hidpi screen.
Less than 2k probably.
