Hi Allison,
I think your one of the few folks that have been on Classiccmp longer than me. I?m
pretty sure you were helping with some of my PDP-8 and PDP-11 questions 20+ years ago.
The
tinkerboard is an ARM based on the Rpi format only 1.8GHz quad core
and 2gig of ram.
I figure that will be adequate for an under 10 watt system.
My guess is that
you?ll find is has VAXstation 3100 CPU speeds, though the disk I/O is likely a bit faster
(I?ve not done any serious benchmarking). I have 3 RPi?s, the RPi2 is a ?VAX?, one RPi3+
is a "DPS-8/M?, and the other a ?KL10B?. I?m finding that I finally prefer the lower
power, and the lower worry of emulation. :-)
