ASUS Released Raspberry Pi Contender
Asus has quietly released a Raspberry Pi
It has 2GB of RAM (the latest Pi 3 has 1GB of RAM) and gigabit Ethernet, as opposed to 10/100 Mbit of the Pi. It also features 802.11b/g/n WiFi and Bluetooth 4.0. The 4 USB ports are USB 2.0.
Asus says the board computer will support a variant of Debian Linux (what else?). The price is going to be higher than Raspberry Pi, at $68.
It is worth noting, however, that as of today, 30th January 2017, searching for “tinker board” on Asus.com’s website produces an empty listing with the title “Tinker Board/2GB”.
What do you think?

I am trying to understand why this review is on a site called “Ham Radio Reviews”. It is not about ham radio, and it is not a review. Maybe it should be “We review Press Releases for Products that Aren’t on the Manufacturers Website”. I think you can still get that domain. Seriously, don’t you have anything better to do than to re-post press releases from computer companies? Look at the name of this site again.
I suppose you are not aware of the usage of a board computer in ham radio, right?
