we have a number of OEM customers using the board as well as a large
number of kernel developers who use the boards for regression testing.

yes indeed i have to agree Max is a leap ahead of the original minnow,
but there continues to be a specific market for the original minnow
specially among developers who need a small x86 platform to do kernel
testing.
amazingly enough, a LOT of arm developers are using minnow to make sure
they haven't broken any x86 aspects with patchsets....
