   Hey Richard!   
      
    RM> Which part??   
      
   The 64 bit capable part.  The faster part seems obvious (1.2GHz is faster than   
   900MHz).   
      
    RM> But I agree that a 64 bit OS is not on the top of the things we   
    RM> need.   
      
   Understood but then why bother with a 64 bit cpu?  It seems like a waste to me.   
      
    RM> Convinced about what?   
      
   Convinced that I should buy one, either raspi2 or raspi3, although out of the   
   two raspi3 looks to be the better deal.   
      
    RM> The chip used in the odroid C2 is capped at 1.5GHz.   
      
   I thought the 2GHz was quite the jump.   
      
    RM> http://www.hardkernel.com/main/products/prdt_info.php   
      
   Excellent!  Thanks for pointing it out.  The last specs I saw were still   
   claiming 2GHz.   
      
    RH> armbian is coming up   
      
   That doesn't surprise me.   
      
   Life is good,
