Subject: [9fans] Kabini or Raspberry Pi?
Topicbox-Message-UUID: fe95c9a2-ead8-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

After I retired job (strictory semi-retired) I'm now running Plan9
only in my house.   Now, I'm hesitating to setup a C2D machine
as CPU/Auth/File server machine.    It eats high level of power.
Here in Japan, all the atomic power facilities is stopping.
In personal house, high performance is not so neccessary,
because most of the work will be done in terminals these days.
However, drawterm looks like very attractive for such purpose.
Then, CPU server is neccessary which is running all the day.

I found AMD Kabini based onboard energy save motherboard
called A68N-5000(Biostar), which looks like very attractive
for my Plan9 CPU/Auth/File server.   Another candidate
is raspberry pi.   However, I wonder it has such as mini-ITX
case and power?

How do you think about this?
