If you are not a professional using high end PC hardware or an extreme game gaming at resolutions far and beyond that of 1080p then I see the next 2 years being very, very interesting indeed.

I agree. I have played about with Pi and my android phone docked to my monitor and they really make my desktop look like some kind of antique.
I have my Pi set up as a NAS / VPN / DLNA server but I'd like something with a bit more power like the Odroid

Practically every electronics device is a mini-pc these days so interesting times it is!
