Not for me, I don't care about Windows (for most people that seems to be main reason wanting a x86). I do care about battery life, Linux, community, quality, features and long term support. That is why I expect the Pyra to be a better option for me. I am looking forward to see an unbiased comparison between both running a Linux distro. BTW. they have designed the Pyra to be CPU upgradable so it might be possible to get an x86 on the Pyra as well.
