Their marketing strives to be detailed and specific yet does a lot of hand-waving about how Roon fits into their VitOS operating system nor does it expand on the processor or overall performance. The fact that it states it will support just 2 zones might imply a fairly low-end processor. I suspect VitOS is a stripped down version of linux that is capable of running Roon Server or ROCK, but that is not clear. Where they crossed the line was in stating that Roon would be included which is against Roon's policies. Perhaps it's similar to what Small Green Computer has done with their Sonic Transporter.
Still, an interesting alternative to a Nucleus that could run more then just Roon (assuming it has a sufficently robust processor to do so).
