I have a "UNIX workstation" on my workbench. It is a Raspberry Pi (an older
Model 2B). It is (at this time) my main circuit board CAD box. Also my main
build box for: ARM (embeded) Linux (Raspberry Pi and Beagle Boards) and things
like ESP32, ARM, and AVR microcontrollers (eg Arduino IDE). And I access it
remotely with my laptop, running CentOS.
