Solid Performance, Pricey Accessories
The board itself is fantastic. Just note that you need the specific 27W power supply and compatible cases, which adds to the total cost.

Great Board, Runs Warm
Excellent performance for learning Python and Linux. Just make sure to get an active cooling solution as it gets hotter than previous models under load.
