Sebastian: if you can copy a TI reference design and produce tested units for $45 price my hat if off to you. ;)

I'm pretty sure that world-class FPGA designers who created an amazing FPGA-implemented computer from scratch would not describe the target market for this ARM board.

with a smile.

Beaglebone Black does not require a blob to boot. It has considerably higher specs than the (very nice) OLinuxXino.

Great device. More open than the Pi, but yet a "black" device. For my next diy project I'm going to give a try to OLinuxXino, it seems to be the cheapest linux powered device without ugly blobs :P

On balance,  Beaglebone Black appears (to me) to be an open platform that offers  good value ($45) with a nice balance of price/performance. Hardware design is open.

How interesting is it to you? I'm simply curious.
