[time-nuts] looking for low-power system for gps ntp timekeeping

[Chris Albertson]

For a few dollars LESS you can get an Intel dual-core Atom board.  It is a
standard PC motherboard.  These can run a file server, a web server, SSH
and NTP all at the same time and have about 90% idle time on the CPU.
 (Running those other processes does not effect NTP.)

Those tiny Arm boards are best until the price gets about about $45.  Above
that I think they are not a great value.
