To be honest, something like this is what I want.

So, buy one?  Granted, a platform such as the one you linked to would provide higher performance and more options, but by time a processor, memory, storage, power supply, interface, etc... are added to the mix, you are well beyond the target price of the OpenJAMMA board, or similar platforms.  Personally, I like the flexibility of a true PC for emulation purposes myself, but there are many applications where a board of this type is a good fit, and it looks to be a better solution than something like a Rasberry Pi. 

You really have to consider feature set, price and application when comparing platforms.  You can always do better by paying more.

Really?  Has the OpenJAMMA board been priced?  Because I haven't seen that price, yet.

Grammatical comprehension is very weak on this forum.  I said I wanted a board LIKE that one, not EXACTLY that one...  I still want an embedded platform and a relatively low cost.  What I was saying (that i've already said a few times in this thread) is that I want a general purpose board with JAMMA IO, not a specifically JAMMA board.  I don't believe this community is strong enough to hold up a JAMMA-only product, but, if the product is a good general purpose board with optional JAMMA IO, then I think the audience could be much, much larger, and success would be that much more certain.

No wonder you have a hard time making friends.

Indeed, the projected price point is also listed on his concise FAQ page. So it seems you're commenting on a product you didn't even read up on.
