"COTS" is commercial off the shelf, meaning ready to go out of the box. Plug in
and play so to speak.
I personally like the kits because I like to build them, get them working, and support
other vintage computing hobbyists and their projects.
I'm not aware of a true out of the box solution. Maybe there is one but I'm not
aware of it.

Do you mean hobbyist or COTS? There are several
hobby SBCs that can do it,
including the P112 and N8VEM. There are 68k and 8086
boards as well.
I don't know what COTS is. I read about several nice looking kits but I was
wondering if there's anything you can buy complete, over the counter these
days or if everybody is running CP/M on old boxes.
