Re: Pricey

" it's no cheaper than a low end tablet (and the tablet usually has a better screen"

Does your tablet have four USB ports, three different screen outputs and 40 GPIO pins? Oh, and an ethernet port 8)

I know what you mean but they are rather different beasts. I use one as a MythTV frontend for example and no tablet is going to touch it for that. Another one will soon be monitoring my office (sensors, Zoneminder etc etc).

It also doesn't want to send *ahem* telemetry data to persons unknown.
