I suspect that Raspberry Pis are more robust than it seems like you 
think they are.  I know many that have switched to using Raspberry Pi in 
place of industrial PCs.  The no moving parts, small form factor, and 
small power draw makes them appealing.

If the Raspberry Pi proper won't suffice, there are many other Pis, some 
of which are even more robust.

Then there are other small form factor systems that are even more robust.

I feel like Raspberry Pi (like) devices are probably /easier/ to buy off 
the shelf than more highly specialized devices.  --  I'm seeing 
comparable stocking problems across the board.

I've been able to go into local brick and mortar store to buy Raspberry 
Pi (like) devices when all of the Lantronix / Moxa devices discussed are 
order only.
