Hello everyone,
Since I'm totally new to single board computers I have read a lot on the internet, but still have some questions. Based on the specs, the Pine SBC seems the most interesting to me. However I've read several posts about long and/or difficult shippings and on top of that the official website informs the potential buyers the shipping time is somewhere between 3 and 9 weeks or even longer. Therefore I'm worried about this.
At this point I'm hesitating between purchasing an 'old' Pine A64+ at a local reseller just around the corner or purchasing the 'new' Pine 64 - LTS through the webstore. This brings me to the question I would like to ask to the forum members: Is it worth waiting an undefined time to get the 'new' LTS-version or should the 'old' A64+ be good enough to be used as simple file server ? (only a few and small files between max 10 PC's)
Thanks in advance for your replies.
Kind regards.
PS: Sorry for my English. I'm dutch.
