Raspberry PI now available
« on: February 29, 2012, 07:27:55 am »
It's here! (Well, only model B for now)
http://www.raspberrypi.org/

But there is so much traffic that it's hard to buy one right now.
People internationally might also have to wait a bit.

Anyway, I'm going to buy one :)

I'm tempted to get one if they ship outside United States.


That stuff should have come out years ago, when my mom and myself were way too poor to even afford a cheap computer.

The Pi only takes SD card as an hdd, so you might want a large one lol

I'm not worried about SOPA creating censorship, that will not stand for long. I'm worried that they'll succeed in stopping piracy!

If I had the money on hand right now I would preorder one. This looks great. I wonder what we could do with this.
800mhz and 256mb ram thats as  good as older phones/tablets. I'd be really interested to see what ends up being done with these
