I imagine having the performance of a Raspberry Pi 3 or so is the bigger deal killer than a mere 8 GB of RAM. Though I second the call for SO-DIMM slots, which would be nice to have for more ARM systems.

Device trees don't have to be files either, there is a binary representation that can just be left in memory by the loader/base firmware.

Wow, that makes a world of difference, especially in making it useful for native buildservers for projects like OpenBSD.

This works out well for me. I won't be able to order one until March anyway so the delay doesn't hurt me at all and the 8GB of extra RAM is fantastic.

I hope that means the unit I preordered half a month ago on mouser will also come with 16GB.
