Can you say more, i.e. who has reported that, where?
My understanding is that there is no heatsink on the CPU. If that's the
cause of the problems, it could be easily fixed by attaching one.
I have ordered an Arndale board which I intend to fit in a small 1U case.
Ordering was a total pain: it honestly said "this website best viewed with
Internet Explorer 10", and although I ordered it on 15th Feb it still hasn't
been dispatched. It's also a bit worrying to see that the "OPENBRIX /
ARMBRIX" board, which is essentially a stripped-down Arndale, has been
cancelled "Due to a situation experienced by the ARMBRIX Company"
(news item at http://howchip.com/ ).
Cheers, Phil.
