Don't be fooled into thinking this is a substitute for the Raspberry Pi. It is a completely different computer architecture. It has a different boot-process. The hardware is different. The software is incompatible. The O/S seems to be supported by just one guy - and that;s in his spare time.
The support for the board is practically non-existent and the forum is a shadow of what is available for the RPi.
In short, although the hardware is everything a Pi should have been. It fails completely in being a practical solution. If anyone wants one, they can have mine :wink: I won't be getting any more - I'll stick to the Raspberry flavour.

Good places to start
Any good supplier links also appreciated thanks
Would also need a cheap case for it from somewhere too.
Raspberry Pi power supply would do
Shame, otherwise I'd have gone for it I think - don't want to get another power supply.
