I suppose the idea is that if the element board is used in multiple product lines (this laptop, and desktop NUCs as well) Intel is less likely to kill it sudden

- soneil 5y agoI don't think putting it in a NUC gives it the groundswell it sounds like. There's no reason the 12th gen couldn't have a processor on a dinky motherboard just like every generation before it. What the compute element really needs is a solid commitment. If they can promise me the next 3 generations will be drop-in compatible, there's value to it. If all we get is "in theory the next generation could be drop-in compatible, but Intel's track record says otherwise", less so. very much less so.
