Sounds 2good2btrue so what's the catch?

It's a kickstarter, that is the catch.

this is pretty much one of those intel sticks.. meh

Well if you like throwing money away just send it to my paypal.
$20
how?
can it run crysis?

Intel is subsidizing it in an attempt to compete with ARM

Bloat that I don't need. How about this instead?

arm is shit though that only runs shitty gimped applications on shitty botnet operating systems
>>51963007
I'd buy one of these if they weren't so darn expensive.

Same reason why we have those cheap Atom-based Windows 8/10 tablets, i.e Intel literally giving them out for free so that there could actually be a demand for them later on.
Intel used to have their tablet and smartphone chip development under it's own division, but after it lost 7 billion dollars over a period of two years they decided it would be best to move it under their laptop chip division so that it wouldn't look so bad on their balance sheet.

isn't it awesome that there exists computers where its ethernet connector takes up the majority of its volume?
> SoC
> MCU
Any point in having both? Couldn't you do everything you wanted with just the SoC?
>>51963012
>Has ports of desktop Linux, Windows (in shape of RT) and a myriad of OS's built for mobile devices (i.e where the chips are actually used)
>Is "shit" basically because it's not x86
The only thing ARM doesn't have is an OSX port and capability of running legacy x86 applications natively.
>>51963091
presumably because mah GPIO
Has any kickstarter hardware project taken off so far? As in, delivered a physical product and grown as a business afterwards?
>>51963080
Of course it's awesome. I dream of one day making a Beowulf cluster that fits inside a mini-ITX case.
>>51963121
The guys who are making Chip did some sort of camera thing on Kickstarter first.
>>51963121
Pebble smartwatches?
But yeah... I don't think there have been that many hardware projects that have been anything beyond hobbyist stuff. There's the Jolla tablet (which has seem a lot of setbacks, but has also shipped tablets), the SteamOS portable (which was pulled before it finished) and Ubuntu Phone (which was unable to reach it's funding goal).

Remix Mini launched. I own one. It's not too bad.
>Wangblows
No thanks.
The specs are nice besides that. Biggest advantage I can see is the integrated WiFi.
The specs are actually pretty decent. That atom chip has [4] 1.44 GHz airmont cores which have around the same performance as a 1.3 GHz quad-core Sempron 3850.
Give me 64GB of internal storage + 4GB of RAM and I would gladly pay around $50 for one of these. Only problem I see with it is windows 10 but you can probably uninstall it and install windows 7 on it.

China was hipsters before it became popular in other civilizations. They pretty much invented that shit.

ARM on suicide watch!
