Variety comes later. Intro courses don't have enough time to do the needed syntax of the language and then start comparing to other languages. Garbage collection is a great feature to consider, but intro students don't know enough to know if auto garbage collection is a big deal or not. Same with type safety and such.

A line of CPUs having consistent numbering. Maybe generation-cores-clockspeed or something. It would at least allow for easier comparisons within a line of CPUs. Might should add cache amount, but within a line that doesn't vary as much. Letter or number designation would be fine (e.g. Q for quadcore H for hexacore). How long has i3-i5-i7 been around and look at the names? AMD is similar. Similar for GPU maybe with amount of ram in there.
