I totally agree about using "16.04" and 64 bit ARM SBCs. This combo
simply cannot be fully baked. <br>
<br>
But at this point my (much older, 32 bit) C1 has been the house
fileserver for over a year without any problems of any kind. It went
seven months running Ubuntu 14.04 between reboots (I was forced to
muck with the UPS a few months back). I'm adding a couple of cameras
to it and it will pull the strings on a lighting controller before
too long. <br>
<br>
Newark has 2452 Raspberry Pi Model 3 boards coming on Friday, and
after that they expect more on April 11th. I don't know if these
2452 are the boards they're talking to me about or for the region,
the whole country, etc.<br>
<br>
The question is how many orders are chasing those boards. This time
four years ago it was about 100000 orders chasing 10000 boards for
the entire world (Newark and its parent constituted the single
source).<br>
<br>
(I'm not ordering any yet, for no reason except that every waking
minute is already fully booked.)<br>
