I went to that URL and noticed that the WiFi chip was Atheros AR9271, same as one I have and not currently supported by FreeBSD but maybe supported in NetBSD-current and Linux.

I couldn't tell on my own whether the rest of the system could run FreeBSD or NetBSD, but from Ian Lepore's response, it doesn't look good.

Better off with Raspberry Pi?
