Hi,

is it exist cheap ~$60 SBC in X86-64 ??

No thank you for Rapsberry PI


I used Raspberry PI SBC for a while now.

But it’s really hard to found a Linux distribution that support

  • RPI (arm64)
  • sysVinit 💖
  • And that I like

Please don’t bring systemD in this discussion thanks.

    I also hate systemd and use slackware and devuan, both of which works on aarch64. I believe Void also works but I never tried it.

    USD $60 seems a bit low for an x86 SBC.
