I am not sure if this is a advantage or not. You have a PC-like, which could hosts a real OS, which all the capabilities:
I think that thinking this board as an Arduino compatible board is quite limiting. You have the cons of both the world (low power, low storage of Arduino and high consummation and a complexity of an x86 board)

Intel powers an Arduino Posted Oct 6, 2013 11:31 UTC (Sun) by khim (subscriber, #9252) [Link] I think that thinking this board as an Arduino compatible board is quite limiting. Oh, sure. But the important thing is that this is “Arduino board plus something” (similar to Arduino Yún in the spirit if not in capabilities). It's easy to create cheap development board (think STM32), but if it's not in “Arduino family” then people can not start using it easily. The only gain is that an hobbyist can start from a quite know environment. Sure, but this is large gain. Before you can learn to run you need to learn to walk! That's why Arduino (which is very underpowered and significantly overpriced) is so popular! And if you started with Arduino then obviously you'll want to work with something Arduino-compatible.
