I was lurking around and spotted this Raspberry Pi 3 Model B from Amazon for US $36.59. It got me to start thinking why would I wanna spend US$35+ for such a system while this HD 4K MXQ Pro S905 US $18.99 and/or this HD 4K MXQ Pro S905 US $22.99 can be hacked to run ARMbian Linux OS. Your thoughts?

Wow, my thoughts aren't how to swing one, but three. Leave one with Android for a TV box and Debianize two.
If this isn't too good to be true, around $20 is a nice price point!

It says no Bluetooth but you could add one if Debian is installed, right?

@Joey - I like your idea.

I have enough for one but sort of need a haircut too. But that's got my attention on the front burner. There's two extra *Goodwill* monitors that are probably the exact HDMI resolution and in need of something to send it the goods.

Call me superstitious, but if I get the means to buy three before my hair looks too early Beatles, I'll pull the trigger. Can always use gel for the hair, but can't just gel me a TV box :-D

Honestly though, 64-bit processor? Well if it's meant to be it's meant to be. Thank you much for sharing Habibie.
