I was going to delete this, but figured I'd offer a quick explanation why, so no one thinks I'm changing my mind out of spite or anything. I bought the Pine64 with a specific purpose in mind, and it is not quite applicable to that intended purpose. I've become aware that the Pi3 may better fit my needs, but I am currently unemployed (laid off a few months ago), so frivolous spending isn't something I get to enjoy much anymore. I wanted to sell my Pine, and use the funds to acquire a Pi3 instead.
After discussing this with my girlfriend, based on my past experiences, I've decided not to sell the Pine. It may be a few weeks, months, or even a year, but I know an idea will pop up in my head, and I'll finally find a use for it. I'd rather not have to go through the trouble of buying it again. Or maybe I'll save it for my son, on the off chance I find a job and I can buy him a monitor, thus giving him his own computer. We shall see.
