We saw some cool ARM boards and systems at UDS-O where there was a Linaro
showcase one night.  I won $50 off an i.MX53 Quick Start development board
from Freescale.  Don't know much about it or what I can do with it, but it
seems cool enough to play with, so I'm going to get one and see if I can't
bring up a Python buildbot on it.
