C.H.I.P

Where did you learn abbreviations?

is gone now and Raspberry Pi makes no money on their

makes !-> their; 1 != 2.

5$ version but has enough sales to break even and use it as a loss leader (Educational purposes).

Omega2's stellar review on Amazon says the expansion board costs three times its parts. I wonder if sales from those subsidize the Omega's cost; do Onion sell it at a loss like one video game console company do for their consoles?

Each platform supports different functions. Did you know you could have up to 5 Ethernet ports on the Omega and it supports native soft AP to act like a router / hub? There are no Ethernet ports and NO WiFi on the Pi Zero.

According to https://community.onion.io/post/15771 the GPIO pins support four ports but they don't come preinstalled or free! Likewise the Pi Zero has 17 spare pins. Pi Zero W for $10 has Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

There are a lot of things to consider besides price like application, use case, size, ect.

ect. is not a thing; it's etc.

@Luciano-S. I know that that can be done, but there should be a JavaScript button I can press to copy that info to my clipboard as well, right? Total convenience function, but it'd be nice if it's not too much trouble.

How can Omega be a full Linux computer when it can't run a GUI or windowing environment like Raspberry Pi ($5, ARM, 512 MB, Debian) or C.H.I.P. ($9, ARM, 512 MB, 4 GB, Debian)? Why do you need a computer to access a computer? Can something like KolibriOS (8 MB, 1.5 MB) be written for MIPS?
