Your list looks like you already picked a very specific system. The arm
platform hardly qualifies as generic, and each system is rather
different, other than sharing the same instruction set and hence user
space software. The kernel tends to need customization to each
platform.
When I was doing work with an arm board (before giving up on it due to
defective pci bus controller), the development system we got was around
$1500. That also included the cost of providing support while doing
our own work with the platform. Perhaps things like the intel boards
cost less. I have no idea who uses samsung CPUs.
This list is of course targeted at making debian run on various arm
based systems.
