I was recently thinking about whether I should buy a new base board for my old Gumstix Overo single board computer so that I can use it with a monitor.
Anyway, I found the board I was looking for, but then I was distracted by this: https://www.gumstix.com/geppetto/overview/ It looks intriguing - in theory, you "design" your board by placing blocks for each of the components. Then, after validation it is routed, populated and tested. You apparently get software based on either Yocto or Rasbian depending on the SOC in use - though I can't find where I read this. I guess it makes sense for people with a certain amount of money to spend on development who don't have the time or resources to do all the design and sourcing themselves. The prices can be found here: https://www.gumstix.com/ordering/geppetto-orders/ So, maybe not that useful for many of the readers here, but I hope it was at least interesting. :-) David _______________________________________________ Community mailing list Community@tinkerphones.org http://lists.goldelico.com/mailman/listinfo.cgi/community http://www.tinkerphones.org
