So what's the catch? Do you have to write your own OS or something? :confused:

LEDE should be the distribution on it. It seems its more for network enthusiasts using its wireless capabilities.

1427869 2016-10-26 10:16:00 There are many Single Board Computers out there. Another project from Kickstarter was C.H.I.P a $9 computer. Although Raspberry Pi would be the most popular one around.

Basically they make use of technology built for embedded systems like mobiles and squash it all onto a PCB board.

I wouldn't mind funding SBCs for educational purposes and families in need. I may look at this in the near future.

I look forward to reading the saga of getting a desktop Linux running on that!
Especially seeing there appears not to be a video out of any sort.
