The first PC to feature an integrated audio interface enabling the user to plug in a guitar or microphone using a standard 1/4? jack plug
The first computer of its kind to have built-in high powered speakers which deliver full range studio quality sound as well as producing vintage guitar sounds.

Acoustica Mixcraft 5 – DAW
Toontracks EZdrummer Lite
Lick Library Player – Guitar learning and jamming centre

Mixcraft and Presonus One are both good DAW choices. It's also nice to have something preconfigured just for audio on the PC side. I was thinking of getting a Mac for just audio production, but this seems interesting to me.

Seems a wee bit wacky. But I'm interested in the specs of the audio interface. I wonder if they'll release that separately? Or have they already?
