Which Airbus sw model to use on a new cockpit ?

Someone should test to see if JL software can run on the Intel Compute Stick when it comes out in March.

Great idea.

#if JL software can run on the Intel Compute Stick

It should from the point of view of compatibility...
Regarding at performance and looking at the specs:

• 1.33GHz quad-core Intel Atom Z3735F processor
• 2GB DDR3 RAM
• 32GB internal storage

Let's see.
The cpus are 4 times slower than an I7, slow mem,less cache, less io, less everything...

It may be a good option to run the client ... but probably not enough for the server.
In the server , we don't want to have lags or wait times.
Maybe, just maybe....

I've one of the chromecast clones with 4cores and 2Gb...running linux.
It's a fantastic machine for browsing, video or multimedia...but it's linux not windows

Now, these devices have some great things
1) form factor ... just a usb stick.
2) energy they need...
3) heat they generate..
4) noise...

So, cost aside we can create a network of them, each one managing a client...
The cost ($149) , is a mix of feelings...
1) cheaper than a low end pc Pentium G (around $350)
2) but.. the linux version ($89) is starting to be ok..


Now, expanding the idea.... instead of having a rack and blade configuration to run FSX and Jee, how about a rack of Intel sticks ? ... that would be portable


But for the moment, I've enough arduino's, raspberry's, linux boards to work with.

.ahh, let's not lost the focus....I have a cockpit to build.
