Intel Compute Stick review (2016): Second time's the charm
I had high hopes for Intel's original Compute Stick, but it ended up being a massive disappointment. Sure, it was cool to have a fully functional computer the size of a few thumb drives. But it was awfully slow and limited in some truly baffling ways (only one USB port?!). Now with Intel's second-gen Compute Stick ($159), it's another story entirely. It may look similar, but it packs in enough upgrades -- a faster processor, better networking and more USB ports -- to actually make it a usable computer.
