Great, so now Maduro invades the stores and whips the shit out of the owners?

Humans are polyphasic too, as infants. We are conditioned into a 8-hour cycle, but it's neither the most efficient nor the best one for your health.

Looking at the specs, it's like the Arduino R3 and Beaglebone Black had some time alone in a room and this thing spawned.

Same Sitara 1Ghz processor, and BBB also has 2 Cortex M4 MCUs. However, this one sports a fullsize HDMI out instead of the microHDMI on the BBB, and loads more USB ports. Looking good...

That would be a hell of an identity
Crysis

I think you accidentally something there.

Point is, "netflix-desktop" performance is craptastic at best. On an ION2 mobo that plays 1080p without issues I am lucky to get 15 fps on that thing.

I'll bite. I run Steam on Windows and OSX, my Windows client lists 257 games. The same library on OSX amass 167 games, and 83 on Linux.

Yeah, Linux compatibility is a fraction of Windows Steam titles, but not that low.

Can it run Crysis?

Absolutely no contest there, man, although that doesn't mean it does not happen.

Our hospital network just changed from a major XP install to a Seven one, and most clients are running WITH admin priviledges. Hey, that's not a bad thing on my side: I'm just a practicing MD, but I bet my workstation is far safer than everyone else's because I can fix the dumb stuff they did via GPOs.

>Also, last time I inserted any USB into my XP box, it popped up a dialog asking what I should do with it.

Then I have two bad news for you: one, you're not up to date on your security patches, namely disabling autorun from removable drives, and two, you are one social engineering step away from being infected. That's how it starts, you click on an icon that looks like a folder but you're actually running malware.

But MACS!!! ARE!!! NOT!!! IMMUNE!!! TO!!! BAD!!! THINGS!!! is way catchier.

Filter: I know it's yelling, I am trying to make a point here.

2003 called, they wanted their scaremongering back.

If you use OSX and practice safe computing (that means NO JAVA FOR YOU), then yea, you're tough as nails to crack. No OS is idiot-proof, though.

The same can't be said for many variants of Windows, especially those still using XP where inserting an infected thumb drive will wreck havoc on your system, hell no, on your entire enterprise network.

70% of *something* is better than 100% of *nothing*. They created the roads, they are entitled to their tool booths. Quit bitching.

I was going to buy FOUR of them to hack and play around with small devices like the Raspberry Pi. Balked at the $216 price tag and never came back. Don't judge.
We have $25 single-board computers and $25 OpenWRT-enabled routers WITH USB SUPPORT (TP-Link WR703N).

A $54 Wifi dongle is, no matter how you put it, downright stupid.
