Concentrating on embedded systems that can run Linux or other “full” OSes.

| Rasp Pi 3 with 7" LCD and 8GB SD | arm | Mini “computer”, but no battery… |
| Rasp Pi 3 | arm | Pi-TopCEED (desktop form factor) |
| Rasp Pi 2 (2011.12) | arm | NES Emulator |
| Onion Omega2 | mips | Weather Station |

| Spark Core | arm | |
| Tessel 2 | mips | |
- Raspberry Pi: Probably THE embedded plamform at the consumer level, although can be used for production purposes.
- Onion Omega2: A great product if you need an “Arduino” like device but with the power of Linux and wifi connectivity. At a base price of $9, really hard to beat!
- Soekris: Looks like a good selection of embedded x86 compatible hardware. Recommended by a consultant years ago.
- RouterBoard: Provider hardware for MikroTik RouterOS, but could potentially install Linux
