If they could make this same form factor, price, and everything else with an x86 processor, the pinebook would be fucking awesome. The ARM processor that they include on these things are underpowered as fuck, and certain applications won't run on ARM based systems.

Isn't the point behind ARM processors is that they are highly efficient and really don't need that much power. That is if you are running native applications . I think more applications will be compiled for ARM architectures in the near future because x86 has sort of run its course.
