I find that incredible for such a small machine.
Could it develop to a personal computer?
Yes, certainly the PineA64 board can be a personal computer; I have been using my debian unit for that purpose ( desktop machine ) since I installed it early last fall. I use my machine for hardware and software prototyping, software research and development, and all the normal uses for which desktop PC(s) are employed.
I do have one small baby problem which has to be monitored ; the midori browser which I'm using has a memory leak ( its not bad, but its really annoying ). If I don't keep the tabs reasonable, and if I don't stop and restart the browser once in a while, the machine will crash due to memory constraint.
Other than that, the pine board has been fabulous as a personal computer. On the other hand, I DO NOT use my pine boards as media centers; other than standard browsing the web. I don't even play many youTube(s). As a media center the gnu+linux pine board is limited ( very limited ).
But, as an actual desktop computer ( and I do mean power user ) its fabulous !
