Something else that is already out there (and a few of us were given
samples of) is:

So this setup for the BeagleBone Black runs LinuxCNC and a small web server, to
control it you login via Ethernet?
Interesting setup, that. I do that quite often with HP laser printers and I've
remotely updated and operated Portmasters hundreds of miles away.

I have some RPIs and I think the BBBs will run rings around the RPIs...
The PRUs seem to be the clincher.
RPIs are fine for some things, but I just ordered a couple Beaglebone
Blacks from Mouser. They are suppose to ship this week.
The capes in the works are impressive..

OK, this was my take on the hardware, but ther
Beaglebone -- TI chip. Intended for industrial use. Family will be
available forever. The boards are open source.
Raspberry Pi -- Broadcom chip. Intended for cell phone use. A new model
every year. The boards are open source -- you just can't buy the chips
for them.
