Intel had the right idea with its Compute Card [0], but decided to sunset it a couple of years ago. It's clear that the way we're manufacturing these devices now is not the way forward. We're putting computers in televisions and refrigerators that can barely keep up with today's requirements, yet the general population expects these devices to have a lifespan of >10 years. With global warming as it is this is starting to border on criminal negligence.

When I heard about it, I thought the Compute Card was fantastic. ...Unfortunately the first time I heard about it was the announcement it was being retired.
