I've had a good experience with the last generation of Intel NUCs on
-CURRENT and -STABLE.

Today Intel announced their latest NUC offerings with Kaby Lake processors,
Thunderbolt 3, and their Octane NVMe SSDs.

Any thoughts on how these will perform with -CURRENT?  The hardware isn't
shipping yet, but will additional driver support be required to e.g. make
use of the Thunderbolt 3 ports?

Will these use the Intel Wireless 8260 supported by the iwi driver?
