Man, that Cavium looks nice.... I bet you are the envy of everyone in
your neighborhood :)

Oh, thanks for that. That may be the toehold I need.

I recall visiting LeMaker in the past when following Banana Pi leads,
but I don't recall seeing a 64-bit offering.

This looks like its only available in Business-to-Business channels,
but I started reaching out to distributors. If I can acquire one, I'll
provide SSH access to it for testing.
