For standard 'computing', yes.

However, I have several that I use for single-purpose tasks and it excels at this. I have one Pi in my office that runs tmux/mutt/irssi, so I can easily access email and our internal chat server from any computer in the building.

I have another hooked up to a TV that acts as digital signage, showing uptimes and other system info.

Pretty neat stuff, but it's painfully slow for GUI tasks

Great, but what's that got do with one being released as a system-on-module?

As a system-on-module, it's aimed more at embedded engineers than first time hobbyists, and embedded engineers already have many much better solutions like this.
