Raspberry Pi 4 looks interesting.

Went out and get more Raspberry Pi 4Bs. One of them the 8GB edition, this 8GB is going to be my primary Raspberry Pi 4 Snakeoil Pi. I did say I will not buy any new SSD until I run out of my exisitng old used stock. But to be honest I have no idea they are so cheap now ($85 or something), and the old SSD I was using is the first generation and that actually felt sluggish for some reason.
 

The other? Well it's going to be something interesting. For a remote KVM (Keyboard, Video Mouse) via the PiKVM project. Yes I run my Snakeoil machines headless, but sometimes it's convenient to connect a monitor, keyboard and mouse to the machine to do things like re-install and what not. Especially with the way Snakeoil is being installed now.

To make things consistent, and because I am using the 8GB version, I am probably going to also try and build some 64 binaries for Arm (ARMv8). Depending on how things goes, there might be 2 Pi builds, or just one (Meaning Snakeoil will only run on Pi 3 and above).

Small SoC computers like this may be the way of the future, as they are getting better and better. Feed them a good quality power supply and it may well be the best player on earth. For about AUD$150!! (As long as the chips don't run out). Note while the wheels are already in motion, my focus is still on finishing the GUI revamp so don't expect this any time soon.
