As we know, *Raspberry Pi* is not the only development board based on the principles of promoting science, technology, arts and math (*STEAM*). Plate that more direct competition makes to the *Pi* is *Banana Pi*, with best hardware, and now has been renovated with new and exciting features...
In early 2014 it was presented a new board with best hardware than *Raspberry Pi*, undisputed queen with 3.8 million units sold to date.
**Banana Pro** is an upgrade of its predecessor with more possibilities: *SoC Allwinner A20 with Dual-core ARM Cortex-A7 (ARMv7-A) 1GHz Mali400 MP2 GPU and 1GB DDR3 SDRAM*.
Now use *microSD* and *SATA 2.0*, *WiFi 802.11 b/g/n (rtl8189es)* and composite audio/video joined in one *Jack*. We now have 40 pins to connect with the outside world.
It seems that the new plates fever development has just begun and the necessary renewal of existing augur a promising future in this world to develop interesting projects at very low cost.
