Giada also introduced a tiny nano-ITX system board based on Intel HM65 mobile-on-desktop platform, featuring a low-power "Sandy Bridge" Celeron/Core processor. The board is designed to run off external DC power input. The board can be used as a micro-server. Apart from a standard SATA 6 Gb/s port, it has two slots, a mini PCI-Express (for WLAN+Bluetooth cards), and an mSATA (to hold its OS SSD). SO-DIMM memory slots, we imagine, are on the reverse side of the PCB. The system can be programmed to run headless, or there is a host of connectivity options along the top of the board, including USB, HDMI, D-Sub, Ethernet, and stereo line-out. The PCI-Express interface below is for an additional PCB that expands connectivity.

Thats a very cool idea! But why are the ports on the top of the card and not on a PCI backplate so they stick out of the case?
 
Thank god that wasn't a 'Yo Dawg! I heard you like...' joke;)

It doesn't actually go into a PCI Express slot, the gold fingers on the bottom is for an expansion board
The same board is used in their Uni-box mini PC http://vr-zone.com/articles/giada-s-uni-box-is-a-split-level-computer/15244.html
