I was sad OpenBSD wouldn't work on the original Raspberry Pi Zero since it was based on the original Pi 1 and we no longer have an armv6 port, but the Pi Zero 2 is based on the Pi 3 which is supported by OpenBSD/arm64 so hopefully it will work on this. I have one pre-ordered...

The Intel Compute Stick was a small x86 alternative to the Raspberry Pi. They're discontinued now but are only ~$50 on eBay for a dual-core 1.4Ghz Atom, 2GB RAM and a 32GB SDMMC disk, and they run OpenBSD fine (and the drivers actually work)
