Hi!</p>
<p dir="ltr">I got a couple of questions about the Minnowboard
Max:<br>
</p>
<p dir="ltr">1) I read these article about a new version 1.91 Ghz
and 2 GB ram for $99. When is this version released?<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true"

<p dir="ltr">On the webpage i can only see minnowboard max with
lower clockrates.</p>
</blockquote>
<br>
we have sent repeated emails to Techcrunch requesting that the
correct the article, however they have not done so.<br>
<br>
here is the correct information:<br>
<br>
#1 option - Single Core 1.46 GHz with 1GB of RAM for $99.00<br>
#2 option - Dual Core 1.33GHz with 2GB of RAM for $139.00<br>
<br>
we expect to offer a single core with higher clock rate as well as a
quad core version, however the pricing and features for those models
has not been announced as of yet.<br>

<p dir="ltr">2) Im using it mainly for running processing (<a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="http://processing.org">processing.org</a>)
and arduino (<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.arduino.cc">www.arduino.cc</a> ) I wounder if
these two will work? at the moment Im using Raspberry Pi but
since its very slow Im looking for a better solution. I found
this page:<br>
<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="https://github.com/MinnowBoard/processing">https://github.com/MinnowBoard/processing</a></p>
<p dir="ltr">Is this for installing processing on Minnowboard or
how does it work?</p>

<br>
the Userspace-Arduino project
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://github.com/prpplague/Userspace-Arduino">https://github.com/prpplague/Userspace-Arduino</a>) allows arduino
style programming environment to work on any linux based system. the
project will be ported to run on the MinnowBoard Max. the
userspace-arduino project is the basis of support used in the
Galileo board from Intel.<br>

<br>
Linux is primary OS that will be targeted for use on the MinnowBoard
Max<br>

<p dir="ltr">4) The problem with the raspbian pi and processing is
that Processing doesnt co-operate with the Pis
hardware-accelearation , so anything using video or 3D will be
very slow. Does this work better on Minnowboard Max 1.91</p>

<br>
i am not sure what you are referring to here. you might need might
to provide more details...<br>

<br>
as stated above there will be different models available with
different memory configurations.<br>
