I would suggest looking at Dokeos or Moodle as a web-based platform to deliver your curriculum from either the Rpi or the BBB. They are both great tools. I've used both in hosted settings but haven't tried them on an embedded Linux platform yet... so I can't vouch for performance. --

There are more than a few comparison articles online. Some I've bookmarked in my journey are: http://makezine.com/magazine/how-to-choose-the-right-platform-raspberry-pi-or-beaglebone-black/ http://www.doctormonk.com/2013/07/raspberry-pi-vs-beaglebone-black.html

Raspberry PI Pro's Graphics. Beagelbone Black Pro's Everything else. Technically, as what is in the reference material, the rPI is supposed to use less power too. However, according to the documents I've read, this does not include the power used by the graphics. Which can be quite substantial.

I should mention that the rPI's graphics are nearly or exactly impossible to disable the graphics chip. SO that additional power that is not counted in the power usage benchmarks will always be used. On Wed, Sep 10, 2014 at 1:30 PM, William Hermans yyrk...@gmail.com wrote: Raspberry PI Pro's
