    P645-MG, but any P645 will do really.

    As someone who doesn't live in California, will this bill (indirectly) make available to me the service manual for my Acer Travelmate? I've search high and low and absolutely can't…

    no idea about PoE on either board but if i/o is a concern you might want to take a look at the $25 rock64 with gbe and usb3 - i/o on my neo1 maxes out somewhere just below 20mb/s b…

    i have some nanopi neo(1)s and they're rock solid - my rule of thumb with arm boards is that support is good enough if it has an armbian _debian_ (vs just armbian ubuntu) release

    you do understand that 'better supported' in the case of the raspberrypi means that you are running a 32bit os? that's all they officially support - and have no plans to change do …

    if we are 'considering the ecosystem' then that means these are running a 32bit os, as mentioned in my original comment

    you can buy at least 2 nanopi neo2's for every rpi3b - they have gbe and a non-gimped soc, and you can fit in at least 2 for every rpi, maybe even 4 there are also more powerful al…

    As a little cherry on top, the CPU they sourced is also crippled with no onchip crypto. Even the half-price Pine64 has a CPU with crypto instruction sets.
