Feel free to choose your own devices / micro controllers as long as it
supports the data diode and doesn't have wireless / audio devices that
provide covert channels to HSAs. Wide range of platforms makes
compromise of COTS hardware much more difficult. Netbooks are not
significantly more expensive than if one were to buy separate batteries,
chargers, displays, cables and peripherals -- It's also more convenient.
Two netbooks pushes the system price around that of a Blackphone.
