I was discussing with a customer an application for a generic user control box which would contain an SBC a few push buttons and a graphic display. I can see no reason to design a PCB for that. I would use an industrial temperature BBB which is fully qualified for the requirements. If your requirements do not include wider temperatures, the rPi zero would do just fine. -- Rick
