What will you be using your PINE64 for?

[Subzero69]

Really unsure what i'm going to use my pine 64+ for. Pledged as i'm addicted to SBC. Got pi's udoo neo's and now the pine.

May use it in a cybot or use it as a cheep computer.

My Pine64 & a linux SD will come with me every day to work. It'll save me having to lug in my laptop, I already run everything through a switch box so my work PC and my laptop can share multiple screens and kb/mouse. Now all I need is a power supply and the Pine.
In my free time it'll be my next project, porting the Arduino IDE & API to a linux environment.
In my down time, it'll be an android media center for netflix and HEVC playback.

I needed to replace my home computer and my son told me about the Pine64+. I only use my computer for social media, simple searches, netflix and storing pictures. I hope I can use the board. I'm not computer literate.

Did you also went for the $89 tier sgary1?

I got the 4K media computer. 1GB unit, 8 GB micro sd, pre loaded with android 5.1, ir receiver and remote, power supply and enclosure. With shipping to Canada it was $74 USD. I'm going to upgrade to 2GB or more later on.
I live in an arid part of BC and dust is a real problem so I think this will solve the problem.
It's time I learned more about computers anyway.

Ah I see. I went to the tier above this one just because of the touch screen for portability sake. I take you have a screen at home then or can plug it in to the TV? I wouldn't say assembly is complicated, and to be honest I was worried at that first too. It's probably even easier than if you had your default Desktop and would be searching for the places to plug in your screen and such. If anything I'm sure there will be videos crawling on youtube just to make sure you are not plugging in anything wrong. And worst of worst case scenarios, your son could help you on the first time around and from then onwards it would be straightforward!

I am also worried about dust, the acrylic enclosure may not be a good idea for me because dust will probably plague my Pine in a couple days. Which is sad, since I really liked how nice it looks like.

I'm aiming to make it a bit of a multi-use, modular brain unit. Ideally, I will use it to go between a MAME cabinet and my outdoor theater setup.

Going to use mine (gonne order it, still) as Android (or very maybe Linux) personal Cloud. My 1TB OneDrive stops somewhere next year + as webserver (maybe for emails too).

I will be attempting to replace my Raspberry Pi 2s throughout my home to better improve home automation and start new projects.
I can't wait for a weekend of redoing work I have already done!
(I have been wanting to do this for a while now)
