The legality of that depends on the wording of the R57 equivalent next year's rules.
However, I don't predict that that will be common in 2015 -- the cRIO's processor is only clocked at 400 MHz (
for cRIO-FRC II). For comparison, a Raspberry Pi ($35) runs at 700 MHz without overclocking it. I don't know what you'd be using it for, but common FRC applications for on board computers (like vision) would benefit from something that has a higher CPU speed or USB capability (something that the cRIO also doesn't have).
