There are a number of expansion boards for both the BBB and the rPI.
Was looking for some hard numbers on the community/users of both boards, and couldn’t come up with anything.
If G+ communities are any indication then rPI has BBB beat by a long shot. With 169,000+ members vs the 2600+ members of BBB or the 1800 member of a different BBB communitie (thou you have to figure at least some of those are cross-overs)
There are Beaglebone Clones the IGEPv2 has slightly more ram, built-in Bluetooth and Wi-FI, a USB host, ethernet, microSD
