Anyone using these microcontrollers?

[Bill Danielson]

I have a Tinkerboard and it may be very good but but it has .0001% of 
the software support that the Raspberry pi boards do. I especially like 
the sma jack for BT/Wifi, that lets you put the board itself inside a 
metal enclosure with an antenna jack on the outside :-).
