Thanks Hiroki-san!


There are many ways to connect an LCD display. Since now I know what 
board I will go for; the Pine64-LTS, I will look at using the SPI 
interface on the GPIO RPi header.


I have used quite a few displays on x86 hardware connected to USB or 
Serial headers so it should be fine.
