Such a blog would be awesome, or even better a comparison site like snapsort.com. There are so many new ones coming out and so much vaporware that it's hard to keep track.
A killer dev board for me would have:
- at least 2 cores
- Linux-supported GPU, preferably with open drivers that are being actively developed
- Able to run rudimentary linux desktop powerwise)
Nice to haves:
- USB powered
- HDMI
I don't want to buy a dev board and have to add 10 different addons with cables and junk hanging around it. If a lot of this comes builtin, I'm willing to drop a larger chunk of cash.
- brigade 14y agoThese boards' power requirements are exceeding that of common USB ports - these ODROID boards in particular can pull about 6-7 watts alone. Practically all boards have HDMI, nothing has open GPU drivers and admittedly few have X11 drivers (just OMAP, Tegra, and Raspberry Pi right now I think.) Dunno what those 10 addons you're talking about are since you have relatively simple requirements outside of working X11 drivers.
- makmanalp 14y agoAh, thanks for the info! I mean stuff like how you need a power adaptor, a USB wifi card, USB hub, etc.
