Neotron Pico Beta Programme is now open - free hardware!

The Neotron Pico is an RP2040 powered microATX PCB with VGA out, stereo audio in/out, SD card and keyboard/mouse ports. The Rust Foundation has kindly sponsored the project to promote Embedded Rust development (the BIOS and Neotron OS are written in Rust, as is the Board Management firmware). We have 25 positions available for Neotron Pico Beta Testers. Each Beta Tester will receive one Neotron Pico Beta Test Kit free of charge (delivery outside mainland United Kingdom will incur a small charge). Each kit includes a PCB, with most of the surface mount parts fitted. It also includes a bag of through-hole components (and one SOIC-8 surface mount part).
