Could someone put a metric ruler instead of a coin in the gumstix picture?, coins are quite country specific and means little outside the specific nation. Electron9 09:06, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Even worse, the view is clearly not from directly above. This causes the coin in the foreground to appear slightly larger than the gumstix board and makes judging scale difficult. --Imroy 11:13, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

The exact dimensions are given in the article.--agr

Well the point of the picture is to give a intuitive hint I presume..? Technical data is abstract. Electron9 21:06, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

If you want I can snap a picture of my gumstix. BJ^Talk 18:30, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

Good idea, got any metric ruler ..? Electron9 21:06, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

How about using a stick of chewing gum instead -- wouldn't that be universal enough? Or a combination of all the above, since metric rulers would also be a bit non-intuitive to some folk? Seriously, it seems enough that the dimensions are given...
