A whole lot. And it won't make much sense now the SAM, X5000 and Tabor exist. The market is already full.
Well, from the DMIPS figures Andreas has provided a 1.8GHz T2080 would be almost twice as powerful as a 2.2GHz P5040 (which, in itself, is twice as powerful as the T5020).
And that is with about 90% of the single threaded performance of the X5000.
So, if a community funded board was approached, that is the CPU I'd like to see used.
Its cheaper than the P50XX, and the performance (overall) would render it a superior choice to the systems you have mentioned.
