My first thought was only 264K of RAM, but once I realized this was not a Linux system, but an MCU with A/D, SPI, I2C, UARTs, timers, SWD interface, etc, they are pushing it more toward the Arduino style of projects and suggest it can be used with another Raspberry Pi if Linux is needed.<div><br></div><div>Based on a dual core M0+, I think it is a nice looking product and I would be interested in picking one up to look at it. The big issue is how much support will it have out of the box - size of the user base, existing code and documentation, etc - things the current Raspberry Pi Linux systems and the Arduino already have - so they will need that to push into the MCU space.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div class="gmail_attr" dir="ltr">On Thu, Jan 21, 2021 at 8:07 AM Pete Soper via TriEmbed <<a href="mailto:triembed@triembed.org">triembed@triembed.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex" class="gmail_quote">
