At the bottom of that page is a link to a project (by a high school student) 
who used two of these to build a Star Wars B-88 robot.  Neat.

Newark doesn't show the BB Green but Digikey does.  Curiously, it's only $2.50 
cheaper than the Black; the difference used to be larger.  At that small a 
difference the Black is the obvious choice (unless you want the funny 
connectors the Green added in place of HDMI).

These SBC's are fun and come with Debian Linux preloaded.

It does have ethernet.  They dropped the HDMI output.  But the main
advantage is price, so if you already found a deal, win.



Claimed as new.  Less than $40 each.  Half of what places like Mouser 
are asking.


And, I saw at least one place asking $120 for one.

It does have ethernet.  They dropped the HDMI output.  But the main
advantage is price, so if you already found a deal, win.

The main difference between Green and Black is that Black has a micr-HDMI 
connector while Green does not.  But they both have Ethernet.

I've used one each with the MFM emulator; they both work nicely and the 
Ethernet makes for a handy way to load or manipulate disk images.

They're supposed to be the same except with expanded operating
temperature range.

You know the Greens work for the MFMemu, right?



Yes, but I am pretty sure it doesn't have the ethernet.  And I found

a bargain on the Beaglebone Black Industrial.

They also have a more robust motherboard.

They're supposed to be the same except with expanded operating
temperature range.

You know the Greens work for the MFMemu, right?
