PC LOAD LETTER: May 23, 2005; WTF?!

Is there a more powerful version of this thing out there/in the works? I'd love to have something that competes with modern top end x86 chips but uses much less power to crunch WCG on.

There's the Hardkernel boards which, whilst not being anywhere close to top end x86 performance, have four cores and some extra RAM to play with, giving you performance in the region of that found in a decent Android smartphone.

No idea if they're any good, though. I've been tempted to grab one to install Ubuntu on, but haven't taken the plunge yet.

There is an updated Beaglebone in the works, which I am pretty excited for. Pre-order info here.

Thanks guys, both of those look pretty interesting to me!
