Key characteristics: - Runs full multi-tasking operating systems (requires MMU-equipped processor) - Has standard display output (HDMI, DisplayPort, DVI) backed by a 3D-capable GPU for desktop graphics - Generally includes standard PC interfaces (USB, network, etc.) - May be lower power than traditional PCs - Complete system on a single board - Typically credit card sized (85.6 × 53.98 mm) or up to Mini-ITX (170 ×","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/platima","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/platima/Board-Taxonomies/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
