Nvidia Jetson Nano developer kit

[DanceswithUnix]

For me this was the most interesting bit of news out of Nvidia recently. You can get a Raspberry Pi like dev board out of Nvidia which is £100 so three times the price, but has 4GB of ram, gigabit ethernet, quad core A57 at 1.4GHz and USB2 & 3 connectors and the ability to drive dual monitors via HDMI and DisplayPort.

Sold as an AI board because it has 128 Maxwell cores in it, but seems to come with a desktop Linux distro making it a general purpose machine for those tasks that a Pi isn't quite good enough for.

Shame the M.2 socket is only key E for wifi modules, but you can hang storage off the USB3 port.

From the specs I think this might be a cut down Tegra X1, it has half the shaders of a Nintendo Switch. Perhaps this is where die salvage parts not good enough for the Switch will end up.

This begs the question as to if the first gen shield tv hosts more value than this (used) as it has a higher compute power but less ram... but in reallity this is a mini nV tv with linux.
