WeatherDuino Forum

Hi

Will this work? or too small and under powered?

I don't know (much about Linux)
But these caught my eye the other day...

It's a Arduino ATmega32u4 with a Z8300 Quad Core 1.8GHz that runs windows 10. It may be possible to have a windows box and a WeatherDuino Pro RX unit all in one

That's really cool. At the moment I am using RPi3's but that looks like a nice alternative.

Nice with W10. Although I prefer and use W10 for productivity applications, somehow, I think Linux is better-suited to being a dedicated weather-service server.

The Pi Zero looks great (low power consumption and cost, high power and loads of RAM), but not having built-in network (wired or wireless) is a big disadvantage.

The Pi3 [Model B] looks good, though more expensive, more power, ...

The latest Pi Zero W that has just been release has WiFi and blue-tooth on-board @$10 makes it much more versatile than the previous version.

Wow. Yes, that's great!
