Comment on Fix a FirefoxOS bug, get a free APC

These look nice, but what makes them any better than a Raspberry PI?

I'm probably missing something, but it looks like it has the same inputs/outputs as a PI, but with only 720p output (as opposed to the 1920x1080 of a PI). The form factor looks to be larger and the PCB looks a lot more complicated. And it's $30 more expensive?

Looks like:

Arm A9 4GB of onboard flash Audio In VGA

Hurray, for $300 in labor you get a free $60 computer!

Looking at these bugs, $300 is a gross underestimate.

But realistically, you probably aren't doing this for the reward and you likely already have an APC to care enough to do the dev work anyway.
