Hi!
I got a couple of questions about the Minnowboard Max:
1) I read these article about a new version 1.91 Ghz and 2 GB ram for
$99. When is this version released?
http://techcrunch.com/2014/04/03/intel-releases-99-minnowboard-max-an-open-source-single-board-computer/
On the webpage i can only see minnowboard max with lower clockrates.
we have sent repeated emails to Techcrunch requesting that the correct
the article, however they have not done so.
here is the correct information:
#1 option - Single Core 1.46 GHz with 1GB of RAM for $99.00
#2 option - Dual Core 1.33GHz with 2GB of RAM for $139.00
we expect to offer a single core with higher clock rate as well as a
quad core version, however the pricing and features for those models has
not been announced as of yet.
2) Im using it mainly for running processing (processing.org
<http://processing.org>) and arduino (www.arduino.cc
<http://www.arduino.cc> ) I wounder if these two will work? at the
moment Im using Raspberry Pi but since its very slow Im looking for a
better solution. I found this page:
https://github.com/MinnowBoard/processing
Is this for installing processing on Minnowboard or how does it work?
the Userspace-Arduino project
(https://github.com/prpplague/Userspace-Arduino) allows arduino style
programming environment to work on any linux based system. the project
will be ported to run on the MinnowBoard Max. the userspace-arduino
project is the basis of support used in the Galileo board from Intel.
3) Can I run Linux on the board?
Linux is primary OS that will be targeted for use on the MinnowBoard Max
4) The problem with the raspbian pi and processing is that Processing
doesnt co-operate with the Pis hardware-accelearation , so anything
using video or 3D will be very slow. Does this work better on
Minnowboard Max 1.91
i am not sure what you are referring to here. you might need might to
provide more details...
5) How much RAM does it ship with?
as stated above there will be different models available with different
memory configurations.

Thanks!
