>>2757159You're right but it's better than a tablet for that and you may be developing something for the Pyra which you can compile and test with the same machine. It was only an example and I gave it because some people in the forums have done it, but of course a laptop/netbook or even convertible would be more comfortable for that.
>>2757162Fair question. No, I don't work for them, I'm not even registers in the forums (even though I check them often) an I don't even have a Pandora. Also I have been butthurt about the high price all this time. What I really like and admire about the project is the fact that some geeks went out and did a console from scratch, when kickstarter wasn't even a thing, asked the community for input, designed it like no other gadget in the market, and made it as open and hackable as possible. They went through a lot of shit and they still prevail. The pandora ended with a lot of rough edges (besides the price) but Now the Pyra is their second take at it and it looks like is gonna improve everything good the Pandora had while fixing the bad stuff.
Also, with all the transparency I feel I learnt a lot about how hardware is made. Some small hardware makers just order almost pre made from alibaba and slap their sticker in, but these guys made everything almost from scratch. If you see how some software projects struggle when being developed (kickstarter stuff mostly, via updates) and think about how hardware is a lot more difficult and unforgiving, it is hard not to respect these guys.
I didn't make the op but I consider some of the first posts really stupid and not fair to the product at all, and yes I was a bit offended, but I felt it was a good excuse to talk good about the machine. If you think about it it is quite awesome and I really hope everything goes well with it.
