New CPU architecture?

Post by RandomUsername »

Is there any likelihood of a future model of Bubba server (Bubba Three?) using an x86 architecture? The Intel Atom processors are quite power friendly and it would make development much easier. Also, there is a fair bit of x86 only software that would be nice to install on a Bubba (I'm aware of Bosch and QEMU but haven't played with either yet but running apps natively would obviously be preferable).

Hi RandomUsername,

Intel definitely have an interesting product line with the Atom, and we do of course follow that ;) . But atm however they all use to much power to be useful in our setups.
