BeagleBone Black: A 1-GHz computer for $45

I think the HDMI is more a concession than anything, since there's no real "GPU" to speak of. This is more akin to the Arduino, but with a little more creature comfort.

Err, what the heck are you talking about? The GPU is a SGX530. http://circuitco.com/support/index.php?title=BeagleBoneBlack

You're right, I was going off a review of the Beaglebone where they said you couldn't do 1080p TV like on the RasPI. Clearly incorrect. :)

Except that this Cortex is running 1ghz, while the most Arduino (or TI Launchpad) microcontrollers operate at sub-100mhz speeds.
