Anton is a busy beaver. Thank you for your articles. I suspect one reason Intel is exiting the NUC business is pricing and it competes with laptops. But then Intel has lost its edge.

I'm not surprised. I baulked at the prices of Intel NUCs and when you compare what you get performance, energy efficiency, noise level wise and ecosystem wise, they generally make poor investments compared to the alternatives. Good riddance as far as the shareholders are concerned and the market share is so miniscule that it barely makes a ripple for the consumer choice.

Maybe the opening line: "On the heels of its decision to withdraw from the desktop and laptop PC business" should read "On the heels of its decision to withdraw from the NUC business" for accuracy.

Also this is the third article on this from Tom's. And while it does have some new specific information, NUC is just one of many lines of small form factor PCs made with intel CPUs.
