Looks like 4 or 5 models on the website. If one can handle a touchscreen, and 
can somehow be interfaced to the thermostats etc. in a cooktop and oven, I'd be 
interested in modifying and old GE P7 range to replace the mechanical 
clock/timer on the front with an LCD. I'd also replace the burner control knobs 
with flat things that have an LED ring to indicate their settings, operated via 
the touchscreen.

Note that there are two versions of Orange Pi: PC (1GB RAM, more
connectors) for $15 and One (512MB and less connectors) for $10.
I think I'd prefer 1GB. I'd buy immediately but I already have a spare Pi 2

Anyways, incredible prices!
