This "solution" is no solution. It uses a more complicated product. It needs programming, which none of the other solutions require. This programming must be learned or at least followed step by step. I believe it occupies more real estate when seen two-dimensionally and more volume when seen three-dimensionally.
It is SEEN as the solution because we're used to picking an actual computer off of a shelf and programming it to do a tiny thing.
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything. "The biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place." -- G. “Bernie” Shaw
