Now, on a less vitriolic and hopefully more civil note...I'm liking what you're planning on the board for the 2.0 version and I'm actually hoping you pull this all together in spite of all the mis-steps made. Seriously.

Reading the list, it appears all points are quite relevant, I am in full agreement with you, add possible additionnal changes to list as it grows..

A GPU would be great. It wouldn't have to be anything fancy. Just enough to take the graphics processing off of the CPU, and maybe enable some light gaming.

More ethernet (10 gigabit?) and even more important: M.2

Change #3 to remove the USB 1 chip has another effect too. The Zynq MIO pins 40 to 51 are freed up for other uses. If I am reading the manual correctly they could become GPIO pins in Bank 1. Could someone confirm this please?

If so, perhaps we could use them for something useful. I've previously suggested making the Epiphany's location available. Perhaps the DSP Y ID 0 to 3 could be connected?

Any other inexpensive ideas?

Hi,

How about using these fans for both zynq and adapteva chip?

Sunnon offers 15mm 17mm etc versions of these.
Perphaps it world be possible to achieve 5W with these?
+ please don't hurry with 2.0 I haven't had time to have some real fun with v1.1 yet
I'd love to see parallella 2.0 with 64core though.
