This little board is being discussed non-stop in many other forums. I intend to buy one but not for Linux CNC
This is way overpriced for what you get if you want to run Linux CNC on if. You are paying for the 120 CUDA core GPU which I don't think can be used for graphics. The GPU is intended for computation, either for vision processing or machine learning If what you are looking for is a faster BBB, then the Pine64 is that. Or if you are OK with spending $100 on the Jetson then why not spend $100 on an Intel Celeron based board? It's a good product but this is not its intended use. Don't worry about the single source, drivers or any of that. This is a standard ARM board that runs Ubuntu Linux and will run just about anything that can run on Ubuntu Linux but the part that makes this unique is the low price of the Nvidia GPU.
