Single Board Computer of the Year

The "Open Source" requirement was removed last year.

Those have quite different purposes. As a good allround "computer", I'd take the newest Raspberry Pi for the moment. Its available operating systems are mouth-watering.

I use Pies for anything but the Udoo X86 with 8Gb of RAM look$ neet?

No RK3399`s to choose from, I`ll be damned.

Orange Pi? http://www.orangepi.org/Orange Pi RK3399/

bang for buck, check out https://www.friendlyarm.com/

I use some of these for various chores around the house along with some good old arduinos (which gets my vote)

1000 times no to the OPi. They don`t even support it themselfs. Just now it`s finally able to run an os on it. Not with OPi`s help.

Yep. That`s what I`m talking about.

I think one of the best boards is missing: NanoPC-T4

Pine64

Olinuxino because it at least tries to be open source software/hardware,
while Pi creators don't care about freedom and going with crappy Broadcom
(crappy not in terms of performance, but in terms of freedom respecting)
and doing it because of money and they are former Broadcom employees so biased

pity the orange pi rk3399 has only 2GB ram
and the pine64 rock could do with onboard emmc

I have an Orange Pi PC2, which I originally planned to hook up to a TV and play movies on. Turns out, there's not really a good GPU driver available, so everything lags. It still works for me as a cheap file server, though.
