      Some of you know that I love RISC machines. This is a very cheap, quad core ARM desktop! Very cool for super low power Linux desktop!

              Super low power. I'd love to set up a business using these everywhere. Would be fun.

                As long as each site has a minimum of one Elastix box, I'd be on board. 🙂

                    It can run Android. The interesting one runs Ubuntu as a full scale desktop.

                      That is cool. I had picked up one of the Raspberry Pie kits to fiddle with. Booted it a few times and then got too busy to even think about it. That looks pretty cool.

                            I've been trying to think what I would ever use something like this or the rasberrypie... very cool things... just little personal use.

                              I had a Raspberry Pi that was supposed to have been shipped to me long ago but it never arrived.

                                  Can't remember now who owed it to me. Obviously their advertising failed!

                                      @Hubtech No, I didn't have to pay. It was a freebie for being a VMware vExpert, companies give free stuff to get advertising and their name out there. But this one turned out to be a scam.

                                            I really wish that they would get Linux Mint ported over to ARM. That would be perfect for this. It is unfortunate that this really only works with Ubuntu as Mint is so slick and it would take so little work to get Mint ported over to it since it is built on Ubuntu.
