I might have considered a SAM460, if only for the PCIe expansion, but the Erika had issues (in particular with the PATA port and the limitations to the length of the drive cable).
I was in the market for a new motherboard last weekend and went to Directron's website for the first time in years. I was surprised to see they still have
Efika in stock even in 2018. Not a bad little board, but with only 128MB RAM I can't imagine it being much more than a novelty to run once and put on a shelf to collect dust.
Really? I didn't think they had any of that stock left.
You've pointed out the biggest issue with the board, the limited memory, but the price was good.
I still enjoy hacking around with low cost boards of various types.
Its why I understand where the R Pi advocates are coming from.
