I have a Raspberry Pi 400 as a development platform, and it's amazing how capable is it at how little it cost and consumes. If only more manufacturers jumped onto the ARM computer bandwagon...

That being said, if you don't mind paying the premium for what is essentially a luxury PC made to look nice in the hands of corporate suits hands, then go for it. If you just want ARM at home, SBCs and other things are pretty viable now.
