May I strongly suggest you no-one buys any of the "Pi" look-a-like boards
at all.
Various reasons including reliability and performance, however the biggest
is that the Raspberry Pi foundation have invested a LOT of money into
research and educational projects based on the Raspberry Pi.
Buying one of the poor imitations of a clone just gives money to greedy
companies based out of the UK and does nothing to further the good work
done by the foundation.
