He implies this regularly: he's not going to come out and say so directly. But, referring to John's overall design, and also his board as "carrier" board, as well the ARM as the processor board as "the system." The processor chip is not what the layperson would "call" a computer, and doesn't meet the definition.
"I suspect that a large amount of the overall performance is due to his clever, thorough and elegantly simple design."
Yes, that and in addition, the design to leave off the items that are noisy and the use of separate galvanically isolated components, and integration of the some of the Regen tech in the USB stage. I don't know what you mean about "reinvent the wheel" as some elements about the design are quite unique, and others are necessary components. But yeah, pretty great design.
Thanks again for your comments.
