Two problems. One: $249US and two: out of stock at the moment. Mind you, so is the 7i92H but it was around $89 and with two Chinese BoBs at $5 each comes in much cheaper.
So then the question is both require waiting. A Pi4 isn't cheap either nor in stock. And an ACORN CNC kit is $329. Looks like in stock. https://www.centroidcnc.com/centroid_diy/acorn_cnc_controller.html It's hard to convince someone to go the CNC route with LinuxCNC when all they want is simple 3 or 4 axis with none of the other amazing features that LinuxCNC offers.
