That's the one thing I either never read or forgot that the current build used a custom version of Mono.
The current beta has been going for a while, although I have a feeling it's getting close to release, so I could end up waiting for the new image release.
BTW, which version of Stretch is recommended, Full or Lite? I was going to load Lite as I've been using ssh when working on the Pis so really didn't see a need for Full. However, as long as Full doesn't slow anything down or use more ram, using 16GB SDs so that's not an issue, having the ability to pull up the GUI through VNC could be useful.
Side note, I was surprised to see MicroCenter MicroSD cards on the official MicroSD list. I've been using Kingston Class 10 cards and never thought about MC cards.
I was cleaning up and found a couple of my old Motorola cell phones that used SanDisk MicroSDHC cards however it looks like they are Class 2 cards. I don't know if they will work at all or just write slower than the Class 4 cards. I'll give one of them a try and see how they work. Nothing really to loose and two cards to gain, at least for basic testing, if they work.
