Is small size the only thing the A/A+ has over the B/B+ board? Is size really such a big issue for prototyping boards like the Raspberry Pi?

- tototomtoboro 12y agoIs is also cheaper. And if don't need the internet conectivity and so many usb ports why use the B?
- lovelearning 12y agoModel A consumes less power than B, because it doesn't have the ethernet chip or port, does not have an onboard USB hub, has a single USB port and has less RAM. A flatter profile is an advantage, when trying to tuck it into those narrow altoid boxes along with other circuits and battery packs.
