The 15 winners randomly picked from the 683 participants in our annual Hacker Board Survey have now been confirmed. They’re located in 6 countries.

After randomly selecting 15 names from all of the participants in the 2018 Hacker SBC Survey that we cosponsored with the Linux Foundation’s Linux.com community site, we thought we’d share with you the list of boards awarded to each. We have obfuscated the names to protect their privacy.
