Intel Compute Stick Reaches Retail
The Intel Compute Stick, a new pocket-sized computer based on a quad-core Intel Atom processor running Windows 8.1 with Bing, is available now through Intel Authorized Dealers for much of the world.
The Intel Compute Stick (STCK1A32WFC, STCK1A8LFC) can transform any HDMI display into an entry computer capable of working with productivity apps, playing local or streamed content, driving basic digital signage or enabling thin clients.
While the Intel® Compute Stick can fit in the palm of your hand, it’s what we fit inside of it that is truly remarkable. A quad-core Intel Atom™ processor and your choice of operating systems: Windows* 8.1 with Bing* or Ubuntu* 14.04 LTS.
The Windows version includes 2 GB memory, 32 GB of on-board storage and comes with McAfee® Antivirus Plus for comprehensive protection from Trojans, viruses, spyware and more. The Ubuntu version has 1 GB memory and 8 GB of on-board storage. Both devices come with Wi-Fi* and Bluetooth* for connectivity, a USB port to connect peripherals and a micro SD card slot for additional storage.
The Windows versionwill retail starting at $149. A Linux version with Ubuntu, available this summer, is expected to retail for $110.

some reviews says it not worth it.
I'm still impressed with how much they got into that confined space. Yet, it's not all that handy, since again you need a screen (with HDMI) all the time, as well as a power socket.

no the USB power the flie, and with any modern phone you have your input device (with wifi or bt).
i always like those kind of stuff.
of course don't expect to run FC4 at 100fps in 4K...

Hehe of course, for got that one. The only advantage of this pen pc over a cheap Raspberry Pi 2 platform is that it comes with wlan, and has Windows 8.1 on it already(Pi is said to get 10 as the devs are cooperating with M$).

Well the product page still says it needs a power outlet wall socket and an adapter like a charging device because of it's need of 2A current. Most USB ports (even those with special charging qualities) don't support 2A, merely 0.5 or 1 with the average USB port, or am I wrong there?

Modern mobile phone chargers can bring 2A, just have an eye on it when you buy one
Actually win10 on the RPi will probably without a GUI and not run most Apps, so it can't be compared (at the moment) with this Win 8.1 stick.
So for me this stick looks really nice as a media device to extend the TVs capabilities (like Netflix, Web browsing (with flash), Xbox video player, ...).
