"BSD on Sub $20 boards."

I'm not sure that's the amazing bit seeing as you can get a Raspberry Pi for not much more than $20.

Considering the requirements, I'd say you could build a BSD machine for less than U$10 (the microcontroller is about US$5). Nowhere near as functional as a Pi, but much smaller.
