Am I missing something, or is this not an i5? I don't see anywhere in Intel's marketing material where the Atom Z3736F is branded as a as part of the Core i5 series.
The company making these things is called "Wintel" and the device is called the "i5". Pretty shady. It has an Intel Atom processor (not an i5) and the product and company names are intended to trick you I guess.
Equivalent to a mid-range intel Atom powered tablet, it has wired mouse, keyboard, and monitor inputs. You use it like a desktop rig. Sietai is right. The marketing is intentionally misleading. It is Atom not i5. Useful as a limited desktop unit for surfing the web and email. Comparable units are the Kangaroo and intel's NUC. Shop around. I've seen both in the 99 dollar range on sale.
