- | The Beagle Bone is a great step up from **microcontrollers** (such as AVR, PIC, ARM Cortex M3, 8051, Propeller, etc) to **microcomputers**. Unlike a microcontroller, where the FLASH, EEPROM, RAM, etc is all in one chip, a microcontroller has them separated out, like a classic computer such as a desktop or laptop machine. The Beagle Bone has a main processor core running at 700MHz, a chunk of 256M DDR RAM, and permanent storage onto a microSD card. This makes for a powerful machine, that has no problems running Linux, a webserver, Python, FTP clients, SSH, etc. | + | The Beagle Bone is a great step up from **microcontrollers** (such as AVR, PIC, ARM Cortex M3, 8051, Propeller, etc) to **microcomputers**.
