$230 . . . although it doesn't seem to come with tutorials or community . . . definitely small and seems to be great for SLAM . . .

Run your choice of operating system on it, like on a regular computer. Use a USB wireless adapter to remote control it from your desktop. Run Roborealm or whatever to do your vision, control the Axon through the USB cable, don't even need a USB hub. What else you want?

wow

Its like a miniITX but cheaper because it doesn't come ready made - meaning you have to connect your own USB jacks ,audio jacks, etc.
