I think perhaps you misunderstand - what I think we're saying is that
your proposed machine probably isn't a member of the RPi family.
RPi is based on chips designed for set-top boxes, it's firmly rooted in
the embedded world. The fact it can run a full version of Linux and be
used as a general purpose computing device is almost coincidental to
that. It's maybe more appropriate to think of it as an Arduino with a
load of extra hardware modules and the ability to run its own IDE.
