Intel is abandoning the coolest thing the company makes.

Damn, this is a sad day for the homelab.

The article says Intel is working with partners to “continue NUC innovation and growth”, so we will see what that manifests as.

They’re also a lot bigger and don’t really fall under the same miniPC classification.

They’re not a lot bigger than a NUC. My HP mini PC’s footprint is like 8"x8"

And NUCs are usually 4x4. That’s literally half the footprint.

Edit: a quarter of the size. This is why I don’t do math before coffee.

Okay, sure, but we’re talking about inches. 8x8 isn’t a large footprint. Don’t be obtuse. Also 4x4 is 1/4 the footprint of 8x8.

Unless space is the absolute unchangeable primary concern than the size difference doesn’t matter.
