So just thinking for a minute. A Raspberry PI 2, the new board with quad
cores, and 1 GB ram would probably work fairly decent as a build system for
the Beaglebones. Granted, something like the X15, of that new nVidia ARM
board, or even the Omelex A20 board with SATA would probably be a much
better choice if cost is not a problem.

By the way, I have no idea what Robert is talking about. You need to ask
him.
