I agree with Joe,

the emphasis on this product line seems to be 'cheap' and not 
functionality. The minnow boards are missing too many important hardware 
items to be useful as a product in the embedded world. The power supply 
for 1 is just meant to deal with the minimum issues. If you want this to 
be put in commercial products, then it needs to take 12V  which is what 
most industrial systems have available. It should support 1 sata drive 
directly with no mickey mouse add on's.
They should be better than a 'PI', not equivalent....
As an ex Intel employee, I am very disappointed at what's been done...

Just my HO

Ken
