      Clear up some USB confusion · 89770831
      Jason Kridner authored
      * The USB branding is not consistent. Please take a read of the spec
        rather than random websites to provide more consistent terminology.
      * The point of client-side cables is the
        single-cable-development-experience. It should be consistently
        highlighted.
      * There is no "BeagleBone-X15". BeagleBoard and BeagleBone are not
        interchangable terms.
      * For BeagleV-Ahead, it is important to note it is a type-AB receptacle
        because it can act as both a host and client at super-speed. This is
        the reason we put on the somewhat rare micro-AB connector--we want
        people to be able to use it both ways without violating
        specifications or requiring extensive software configuration.

      Minor capitalization and pluralization fixes · 49a2d8df

      Actually, all "BeagleBoard" boards are ARM, but not all Beagles. We need
      to find better encapsulating terms. Specifically, this page only
      addresses "BeagleBoard" boards, like BeagleBoard, BeagleBoard-xM, and
      BeagleBoard-X15, not BeaglePlay, BeagleBone, BeagleConnect or BeagleV boards.
      
      We've started using the term "Beagles" to refer to the entirety of the
      product line.
      
      BeagleBoard is meant to be embedded single board computers that are
      low-power and small-size. Both xM and X15 added more upon this base.
      They are all ARM+DSP based boards.
      
      BeagleBone is meant to have the cape headers for embedded prototyping.
      Originally, BeagleBone stood for "the bare-bones BeagleBoard" where less
      was integrated onto the board and more header pins were available to
      make it more optimized for embedded systems. We also dropped the DSP
      from the original BeagleBoard. AI and AI-64 bring back the DSP for
      performing AI tasks.
      
      BeaglePlay is meant to be an easier-to-use computer with standard
      connections and integrated connectivity.
      
      BeagleConnect is meant to be MCUs that connect to Linux computers to act
      as the gateway or system controller.
      
      BeagleV is meant to be RISC-V based boards.
      
      Let's figure out a place to put this information and get ourselves
      aligned to it or correct it as needed.
