I'd love to have small, low power, easy to setup, x86 chips or modules-with-BIOS, in the 40-200 MHz range, with 486DX/DX4/early Pentiums instructions and similar or better performance; possibly with a few basic SoC functions (UARTs, simple VESA-like graphics (no unusable 3D acceleration), integrated memory). And not some Chinese NDA doc-less chips like Vortex.


In that Mhz range, you probably just want some ESP32s or it's smaller sister, the ESP8266. They're absolutely fantastic little boards to play with.
