Until I got the AMD board I was totally on board the ARM train but the power efficiency it has is good enough that I'm happy with it. When doing light tasks its basically a Macbook Air while having the compatibility x86 has so I don't have to worry about that.

I dunno, my wife's MacBook air gets like 15hr of battery life and my framework MAYBE 4.5, both doing "light tasks." They aren't even close.
