meh, it'd be nice if it was more open from the CPU point of view but it kinda works out, plus "there's always hope". Can't make up for the lack of instructions and power.
Heck, both of them reasons while I like intel chips afterall. Their newest ones are pretty sexy too. I'm hoping sexy boards of similar form factor, and... oh yeah price.. err. yeah not going to happen :(
So in the meantime armv7+ boards are pretty decent (with similar random support, which, also mostly works out)
