93- In stark contrast to the CRB, the tiny [ NanoPi R2S] [ 9 ] is * very* cheap
94- and available from many sources. It's nowhere near as powerful, of

94+ the Rockchip RK3328, a quad-core Cortex-A53. With two Gigabit Ethernet
95+ ports, a USB 3.0 port, and a reset button, it has everything you need
