Just curious if anyone has tried the Whitebox:

Seems to be a better value than Portwell's Neptune.

Thanks,
Derek

              I am new to OpenBMC. I want to try OpenBMC on some off-the-shelf hardware platforms. Can anybody recommend some products (with development toolkits)? Thanks in advance!
    Welcome Feng to OpenBMC community! 
    
    I would start trying to get an evaluation kit by contacting BMC SoC Vendor e.g. https://www.aspeedtech.com/products.php?fPath=20&rId=440
    If you plan to work on host (BIOS/UEFI)<->BMC interactions, recommend another off-the-shelf product that has COMe connector to plug-in host processor e.g. @ http://portwell.com/solutions/pdf/Portwell-Neptune-Alpha-OpenBMC-Development-Kit.pdf
