    I have a few around here:
    made a gaming console out of one.
    another runs my Weather Station and uploads to WUNDERGROUND.
    two are used to remotely take photos (one to WUNDERGROUND and one was used during the Solar Eclipse behind a dark lens.
    I have another that I designed a small circuit to control my SLR Camera as
    well for clicking the shutter on it (kinda neat concept).
    I have one that is just used for playing and desktop stuff and all that.
    I think I also have one (unless it was reused from one of the above) for testing circuit board designs and programs.

    I also have one of those PINE 64s as well. I was given one of the screen
    cases so I purchased the screen and installed DROID OS on it and use it as my video screen for my DJI Phantom drone.

    Very interesting projects!

    If I had a direction to go and a need for one, I wouldn't mind learning
    about it...

    My wife and I visited the Boing plant in the Seattle area and used that app to track any
    air traffic that was going to pass by or land there. Anyone purchasing a plane has 3
    flights before they take ownership. The first 2 are flown by a Boing rep and the third
    can be flown by the purchaser.

    We really enjoyed that visit.
