AAEON’s new UP 7000 is a single-board computer that you could easily mistake for a Raspberry Pi. It’s the same shape and size, features a similar set of ports, and even has a Raspberry Pi-compatible 40-pin GPIO connector.

But while Raspberry Pi’s little computers have ARM-based processors, the UP 7000 is powered by an Intel Alder Lake-N processor, which should translate to better compatibility with a wide range of operating systems (including Windows and GNU/Linux distros) as well as better overall performance.
