I don't think this will have (or is meant to have) any effect on professional applications. This is just for the educational and cool factor.

  Right now, yeah. But if this tech trend (miniature, low power, cheap, commodity) continues and we can run our apps on them ... it might be a game changer. No?

    Hu no. "Low power" , "cheap" and "commodity" already describes retail computers since almost 30 years. Why do so many people want to see a higher purpose in any fun experiment? Can't it just be that, a fun and cool hobby project?

      Just for a different perspective, I grew up in a very low income household, and the Pi was the only computer I was able to convince my mum to get me as an early teenager. "Cheap" is relative, and I disagree that the Pi wasn't a big step forward in terms of price on the very low-end.
