I could get as much or more processing power out of a Gamecube running a homebrew app vs. the same for this ACube. So if it costs anything over $200 with memory included, it's not worth it.

But can you connect a hard drive and a keyboard+mouse to that gamecube? Will even nitendo let anyone run lets say a OS or a software application on it? I highly doubt so....
The gamecube is just a console, so no wonder why it is cheaper.
It hardly even has any ram, so how can you expect to run anything useful on it?

Your plus points for the SAM also apply to the Gamecube. Like it or not the Gamecube is just as capable of running OS4 as the SAM.

And you have to hack your console even to run it and thus breaking the law in some countries and it is also about to get completely discontinued. would even make more sense to port it to the ps2!
