So any comments on how is this better than a Raspberry Pi for example? You could all this using an arduino or a pi isn't it?

The advantage of this Intel stick compared to RPI is: - more power

- x86

- Run Windows (this might be interesting for lot's of users)

- Bigger storage

- Better and compact pack

Disadvantages: - More power consumption (??? any numbers on this)

- Expensive compared to RPI

- I guess it will be hard to beat the RPI community with this product.

- No GPIO

EDIT:

Add GPIO
