Hello All

Anyone else find this interesting, https://www.alwaysinnovating.com/touchbook (https://www.alwaysinnovating.com/touchbook) looks promising as an orbiter and $299 seems reasonable. Heck maybe you can use it as a portable MD for your house, Any thoughts.

probably wont easily work as a MD because of its ARM processor

True Nigle, But a good Orbiter for sure and it's already running on linux so shouldn't be a problem right.

I wouldn't mind having a stab at it but I don't have any suitable hardware.

What kind of hardware would you need? would something like a popcorn hour work? Or would something different be better? I might be able to help chip in for some hardware for you. Just let me know your thoughts. Thanks
