A Pi can do a lot. It's just not realtime like an arduino. A lot of folks using a Pi for a 3D printer are using the Pi to drive an arduino that will actually run the steppers and handle the gcode.

Here's my Pi:





It sits next to my mill and I use it when I need to make any kind of calculations the Google Home isn't set up to do, like that cutting speed app you posted recently. The screen's about 13" color.
