Hi everyone, Today, I got a package with Up Tape in it: I’ve been expecting to receive my UP AI Plus that I backed on Kickstarter last year. The project got several delays due to Intel CPU shortages, but last week, I received a tracking number from AAEON, which makes the UP Board and this just popped up today. It initially should have been delivered on Thursday. I’ll be opening the box and seeing if this is definitely the UP…
Hi everyone, Today has been a busy day, as I’ve been configuring back my Raspberry and Orange Pi’s as well as my PINE 64 to crunch BOINC Distributed Computing tasks again.

They are mostly running Universe@Home tasks. You…

Hi everyone, Today, I’ll show you a video where I’m installing Windows 10 Creators Update (build 15063) to the UDOO x86. Installing Windows 10 is very easy and while the setup took some time to finish, Windows 10 runs very nice on this board. In fact, I used the UDOO x86 to do the ArduBOINC project you can see by clicking here. One recommendation is that if you plan on installing big software later, like Visual Studio 2017, I recommend you…

Hi everyone, A few months ago, I got the Raspberry Pi Zero. This is a very small computer but it is extremely cheap! I got it just to try it as I was curious to see how will it perform compared to the original Raspberry Pi. It performs really well, I think a little faster than the original Pi, but that could be because of the speed of the MicroSD card I’m using here. Anyway, here, you’ll see some videos…
