I've left a old one (a genesi efika mx) as a "workstation" mostly web
surfing, email and photo organisation, for my parents not so computer
aware, and it is fine.
They complaint about f***g flash, slow video player and you can't open
so many tabs in chromium...
I plan to get a imx6 board too, if one day genesis comes back from coma
...
Or build my own armPC
