Hey guys,
I was looking into Razberry Pie and then i found this board. I've always wanted to have a system that i could take with me, and could run on a battery. Emulators would be the main thing running on it but i got to thinking about other games, and seeing as how this can run Linux...

Can it run dwarf fortress? It is entirely CPU based with pre-SNES graphics and i don't have 100 dollar's to spend on a Parallella. Thanks for the response.

RPi is probably a better bet for games as it has a GPU. This is best thought of for parallel programming research and embedded use IMO

i wonder if you could use parallelism for an emulator

some cores emulating each hardware unit of the original machine..

EDIT: actually the Zynq FPGA should have great use for emulators

don't know if it's better than raspberry pi, but there's also odroid xu4
ARM Cortex-A15/A7 (Samsung Exynos 5422), 4x 2.0GHz + 4x 1.3GHz • GPU: Mali-T628MP6 (600MHz) • RAM: 2GB LPDDR3 (933MHz)
