Intel Compute Card (95mmx55mmx5mm) PC in Your Wallet
- castratikron 10y agoI was hoping it was going to be a standard smartcard format with a general purpose Intel/Linux system inside.
- richardboegli 10y agoThat would be AWESOME.
- lcw 10y agoI always get excited about these things, like the Intel Compute Stick line, but when I get them I feel like I'm having to work around the limitations of the cpu or integrated graphics. It kind of feels like the netbook push that happened about 8-10 years ago where you would get a computer that couldn't even run the OS much less do something productive on it. I just feel like, at least the base models, of these Intel products are just a bit under powered. I hope it isn't the case with this, because it looks awesome.
- dTal 10y agoIt's all about the software. Even "embedded" computers of today are faster than the workstations of yesteryear. Modern desktop Osen squander that power - particularly Windows. Imagine what you could do with this if you ran Forth on it! Saying that, I have a 2007 EeePC that runs Debian very well.
- jxy 10y agoI couldn't find any concrete specifications on the webpage. Can somebody provide a link with actual details and without all the nonsense buzzwords?
- richardboegli 10y agoIntel did not provide specifications yet. Only thing I could find was 6W for CPU.
- byziden 10y agoBBC Click has some specs http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-38515472 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-38515472 Intel Core m3-7Y30 1.0 - 1.61 GHz 4GB RAM 64bit Includes storage, WiFi Apparently runs Windows 10
- god_bless_texas 10y agoSomeone should make one of these with an integrated projector and integrated laser keyboard.
- devnill 10y agoFor those interested in this kind of thing, these are a lot like the EOMA68 cards (https://www.crowdsupply.com/eoma68/micro-desktop https://www.crowdsupply.com/eoma68/micro-desktop)
