well, the only useable video out is HDMI on the pi

seriously, I spent a YEAR swapping composite monitors to find one that would display 80 columns in a readable fashion for my apple II before I found a 5 inch LCD and its still pretty piss poor

to display a console text your looking at a minimum of 10mhz bandwidth in monochrome, nothing past the 80's will support that on composite ... svideo eh maybe, rgb/scart yes, composite lol, no


and that has a lower pixel density than 640x480 vga text (560x192)

Gizmo needs a whack upside the head WRT pricing... ($199 !)
You've been able to get very small pc-compatible systems for quite some time (and ARM systems too.)
Size is not what made Raspberry PI interesting.
