I ran one of these as a dev box for a few years. Worth considering if you dont go with a pi and would prefer something chunkier. It's not milspec but you could smash a car window with it.
You can often find the older versions for cheap on Ebay. I ran ubuntu 16.10 on my basic Celeron model for compiling QT stuff and it was fine. (Given that speed wasn't a requirement for me at the time). I bet the i5 ones are really snappy.

I'd personally go with a pi4 though.
