Neat history but not all that efficient in terms of heat, instructions per cycle, or money.
While RPi prices are still stupid, there's a variety of low-spec IoT ESP32, STM32, and pocketbeagle. Bananapis are far more capable than RPis for about +50% $.
If you have more money, embedded Ryzen and EPYC such as used by Deciso OPNsense boxes (FreeBSD-based).

PC Engines did reasonably cheap full computers (embedded, or at least headless, but GBs of RAM), x86 (so you didn't need some special hacked up OS image just for your exact board), and coreboot (high quality open source firmware).
