Anyone using these microcontrollers?

 I've used the Adafruit Featherboards for some projects where the
integration with lithium battery, gsm radio, bluetooth or SD card made the
project simple.  They are a little spendy.

For a Raspberry Pi replacement I suggest the ASUS TinkerBoard.  It is twice
as as fast as the RasPi 3 B and costs twice as much so no free lunch.  I've
been using it on my PiHPSDR controller and the throughput difference is
really noticeable.
