/Looks at price...

Gets you 11 Pi's ... Gets you only 1 Intel CPU, no memory, motherboard, heatsink, fans.

Reminds me of the Celeron® Processor J3455... 10W rating on Intel there page. On AVERAGE! Then when you see the real power usage under load for MB + CPU + 16GB memory, its actually doing 35W.

Where as the Pi's are doing 3.7W max per piece. So even with 4 pieces to match the performance, your still half the wattage.

If Intel really scaled that good in power vs performance, why are we not seeing x86 phones all the time?
