Note the $189 price tag doesn't include the Raspberry Pi compute modules, which are about $30-40 each.

It's a neat form factor but you could just buy some regular Raspberry Pis and an Ethernet switch.

I thought it was $189 for the whole kit and caboodle, but as you said its not.

$189 is a little expensive for what you get.

That's without eMMC though. Having a bunch if normal Pi's running SD cards would end up in tears at some point.

Isn't eMMC on each RPi board? No?

The compute modules come with onboard eMMC
