Not really since its an intel atom cpu made to somewhat emulate the pi in its outside world connections. But if the ethernet plug has an internal usb hub between it and the cpu like the real pi does, it will wind up being a non-starter. That usb-2 hub in the pi is a serious data bottleneck that the spi and wifi interfaces doesn't have. An internal usb-3 hub would be a different kettle of fish. but the propaganda we can see today leaves out enough details to properly judge it. And I don't think thats an accident. We will have to spend the money to find out. I'd also bet it has a UEFI bios, and our install iso's have no clue how to deal with that, I bricked the best odroid made at the time, a c2, trying. I am told a jtag programmer could bring it back but that's 2x the cost of the odroid, at about $150 for the whole kit, why bother?
