  Hithere.
I am not a new user but this is one of my first posts.I have been using the Orange PI's now for about 2 years if not longer and have a lot of PI's not just the Orange.

Well so far I've had the Orange PI Prime for 3 days now.
I do have what I think is one of the beta ones.( 2 of them.)
I must admit things are starting to look a bit better for the company.
I think they have been working harder on the software end of it, Butthey still have a way to go.
I have been able to get a lot of the new linux software to work.
Now that is a real real big difference from before with the other PI's.
Mind you I still have to try the new Operating systems on the other PI's.
I do have these Orange computers.:Orange Pi Win 2 of these, Orange Pi Plus 2E, Orange Pi Lite 3 ofthese, Orange Pi WinPlus. Orange Pi PC I have 6-8? of these.
I am going to say that they have come a long way so far and still havea long way to go, And they are getting there. Just need to be a bitfaster.
I will be honest I have had a lot of problems getting one or anotherthing going. Like the network on the Lan and Wifi.
But I have always gotten threw it. Sorry but I did ended up using otherhardware to fix the problem whitch I was not happy with.

Some things I would like to see better are
:down loading Operating system files better.
:All hardware working with there Operating systems not just some things.
    (Networking,Wifi, Video output, Mounting holes for a fan, internet in Operatingsystem working, and some other things I cant think of right now.
     I have done so so much I have forgotten the other things right now.)
inks in there Operating systems working.
:Wifi antenna connections lasting more then just removing the connector thefirst time.
:More languages in there operating systems. ( I am English But still otherlanguages would be very good.)
:I have to add, All operating systems in English. (Sorry had to say.)

OK now what I have seen and experienced.
:There communication with me has been very good.
:They have changed there web site. It shows that they have been doingthings.
rice can't be beat with what they are selling.
:I really like the new "Orange PI Prime" so fare.
    (this is the first time that most of there Operating systems haveworked.
      But I can't read chinese in some of them. But they do seem to work good.
      So I would realy like to try them out.)

I know the list for what has been done is small but it is very veryimportant. And a BIG improvement.

Thank you for not letting thing just barely work. Thank you for doing whatyou have and still doing.
     You have more to do but you are doing things. That is GOOD.

PS: why does my text keep changing? And what is this Dollar thing?

What do you want this board for? What is your primary use case?

Orange pi prime support is actually pretty decent. Well, its wireless chip is not the best one, but it works.
