CuBox isn't really comparable to the R-Pi. It is a much, much better
piece of kit. Then again, the Allwinner A10 is better still.
What we desperately need isn't cheaper ARM machines - it is _better_ ARM
machines, particularly WRT the amount of RAM. Once you start requiring
more than 512MB, the field narrows very dramatically and the costs
multiply by a substantial factor.
