Hopefully, I was thinking it was something to do with it running Android but that seems a bit daft. | |

Seems daft to limit the output to 720p, wonder what they're aiming their audience to and for what purposes. | |

They said themselves that they never shipped a case with it as it would have bumped the cost up too much. Still, there are a handful of people that'll knock you up a case and if you have access to the gear then it's reasonably straight forward. Only issue with the RPi is the lack of mounting holes etc | |

Doesn't mean people who would rather it have a case won't buy it. | |

People who they are aimed at, which I still stick by and is just about bang on accurate. | |

Also Neo-ITX Standard, which should mean it's going to be easier to source decent cases/enclosures for them, with all the connections on 1 side, which is a bonus over the RPi IMO. | |

Looks like the Raspberry Pi has already sparked up some competition in the form of another sub-£50 micro computer. |
