It does take a bit more fiddling to get everything going on the Rpi 4B, but it 
seems to run pretty nicely once done.  I don't have experience using it with a 
7i76e, as most of us use it with the $45 7i90.  If you don't need hardwired 
ethernet for communication with the 4B, then you can certainly use it for any 
Mesa ethernet card like the 7i92 or the 7i76e (if I'm remembering what a 7i76e 
is).

Hello guys,

As  some of you know, I'm finishing a CNC router and I'm about to purchase
all the control hardware. I know Gene, John, and several people here are
running LCNC on the PI with success but I would like to know how much of a
pain in the ass is to get it running well with a 7i76E for controlling the
router.

I'm trying to decide wheter I purchase Rpi 4b or I use a normal PC as I've
been doing with all the other machines. I really like the idea of using
something as portable and small as the Rpi but I don't want to purchase one
just to test right now... I do have a Rpi3 with Octoprint on the ender but
I don't know if that's a good candidate to test LCNC.

What do you guys think?

Thanks as always and I hope you're all doing well :)
