Hi
all,
The Banana Pi, dual core and 1Gb ram with SATA disk is still a winner. My 1Tb disk, NO "wear out" problems and SPACE, SPACE SPACE. I even have 10Gb for "swap", real swap space. And of course, loaded with Fedora 21, runs WSJT-X etc.. well. The only downer is the ARM Consortium MALI 400 graphics, no open sauce driver. Headless is great, it's over by the radios.
