Another win for mini PCs. Pis priced themselves out of the market since pi4-pi5 imo

I can get a second hand mini pc or Optiplex for much cheaper, and with quick sync

    yep and I/O isn't terrible to add. A CP2112 USB <--> I2C module is like $5 on amazon (and way less on AliExpress) and gets you an I2C port and a few GPIO all controllable through Python or libusb. The FT232H or CH347 modules are similar and offer SPI as well.
