If you want to do power comparisons you should probably do an apples to apples comparison. Just like you wouldn't deploy your app on an Intel netbook powered by an ancient celeron, you wouldn't deploy your app on a consumer level odroid development board. It's also important to remember that th

Thanks for the details, Dave! Basically, I was wondering if I can build a 64-bit application that runs on ARM servers. Since they have low footprint and power requirements, I thought it would be nice to build a stack/cluster. Looks like I can do it as an experiment with limitations but its best to

There are no server class arm64 boards in your price range, sorry. If you want server class hardware you should look to Cavium or ARM themselves, these development systems start at the several thousand US dollar price range. If you want something in the $400 mark, http://www.96boards.org/ (curr
