At 700€ price tag what a gift! It's 3-400€ too expensive for a very dispensable toy, especially given that the managed stack (.net) of Microsoft development tools can be tested on Raspberry Pi or M1, which are both very popular with developers.
Yes, I've mentioned elsewhere that they really should have gone all in on copying Apple and not only make the Dev kit cheaper, but issue a credit on future hardware purchases if the Dev returns the Dev kit when they get done porting their software.
It's not like you want to keep something this underwhelming forever at that price point.
