We’ve launched 2 new boards for controlling your 3D Printer (and also CNCs and Laser Cutters) that are 32 bit, run the incredibly powerful and easy to configure Smoothie Firmware and have pololu style sockets allowing you to use your preferred A4988, DRV8825, or TMC2100 stepper drivers and easily replace one if it burns out.
The first board is the Cohesion3D ReMix which has 6 drivers and MOSFETs so that you can run triple extrusion set ups like the diamond hotend, powerful heatbeds with a 20 amp channel, and a wide range of other supported peripherals such as high voltage inductive sensors, direct headers for the RepRapDiscount Graphic LCD, Wifi on board (experimental) and an ethernet expansion header.
At $149.99 it is a steal for a 6 driver board running smoothie that has all this power in such a compact 4 inch square package.
Check it, and our $89.99 Mini which can be used for a single extruder printer with heated bed (and to upgrade the K40 Laser), out at http://cohesion3d.com!

Very nice… once I am back on my feet i will need to pick one up.
