Intel beefs up open source Raspberry Pi challenger and slashes price
Intel has beefed up its open source single-board computer and cut its price in half.
The Minnowboard Max features an open hardware design and is targeted at software application development pros and enthusiasts who want to code for the "deeply embedded" market.
Intel has slashed the Minnowboard price from US$199 to $99 (£60) -- although distributor prices vary and not all have reflected the price reduction at the time of writing. Along with the price cut comes a more powerful Atom processor (64-bit Intel Atom E38xx Series SOC), integrated Intel HD graphics and a smaller overall footprint for the machine itself.
