Apologies for the link to my blog[^], but a pic of what my client set up is there, below it is my setup at home for testing the software.
Some of you may know what I mean by when I say, these are ready to be installed in the "club." These are going to a new "facility" in Tijuana (and no, not a prison.)

So, what would a brothel want a setup like that for?

WTH is a "beaglebone"??
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

Whenever I read "beaglebone" a mental picture of a beagle chewing a bone pops into my head.

How do the beagle boards compare to arduino and raspberry pi?

He looked at those (and many others!) and my client chose the Beaglebone because of the number of GPA/I2C/SPIO options, but then he ended up adding an extra GPIO chip on it as well. He's also powering them through the Ethernet port, though not sure if that has any bearing on anything.
I guess it was primarily because Derek Malloy[^] has a great book and tons of resources, but I ended up borrowing a bunch of code originally written for the rPI.
That said, he's looking at rev 2, which will probably be an rPI or Arduino.
So, short answer is "no good reason." 
From a historical perspective, he originally had the idea that everything would be coded in C, but there are so many examples and libraries in Python, that when I did the development, I ended up using Python. It's a little annoying that the source is all "in the open", but we've changed all the system passwords, closed down all the ports we don't use, and when I do a software upload, I use a password encrypted zip file.

60 Beaglebones on a test rack?
Not as good as 99 bottles of beer on a wall!

60 BeagleBones ...  wow !
Perhaps it's better I don't know ... and ... I'm a little afraid to ask ... but, what type of of club in Tijuana will this be ? If you tell me, I promised I won't tell anyone else.
cheers, Bill
