^^Wow, good job. I bet when the R-Pi people said high traffic the resellers assumed UK/EU traffic. Got in to RS... still getting the interest page.

No whats beaning said is that you have the RPi in a Computer Science class, everyone learns on the RPi. Several are really nerdy about it the teacher can order a batch of them + value accessory bundle for them to take home. All at minimal cost.

That's understandable. In my High school Computer Science class homework was writing out the C++ on paper worksheets, then implementing in the CS Lab. In Codewarrior on Mac Performa G3s, ahh good times.

^^ xbmc will have a port and it can launch stuff like emulators. DNova posted:we're actually the same cat OK so I'm not THAT crazy...yet. It managed to get made because its a charity education foundation, but I'd say 95% are going to end up as media boxes. Like mine will. The other 4% are people who have no idea what it really is and want to do retarded poo poo like make their own tablets and replace their computers with it.

I wonder how many people are using shoddy power supplies? I've been using my cellphone's 1A adapter with a class10 SD, hdmi and a keyboard without issue. I did seem to have a bit more trouble with a wireless mouse also plugged in, but I though it might just be xbmc being weird. Whats the SD card benchmark to look at for RPi performance? Random R/W 512K?

After shipping I think it was $48 for the model B annnnd I bought a $15 case annnnd now I'm looking at buying a $20 SD card. poo poo I should have just bought the http://www.tonidoplug.com/ Cool people make there own cases.  By making them out of a disposable Ziploc Tupperware container with slots cut for the wires.  If you haven't got a SD card yet, get a lower capacity one to save a buck if you can, their is really no reason to get a 32 or 16gb unless you want to store media on it as well. Most of the images are between 1gb-4gb anyway.

Red Robin Hood posted:I think I want to try to use it as a webserver, but I've never done anything like that before. I don't expect I'll need more than a 4gb card. Should I get a class 10? Is that what was decided as the best to use with something running an OS? I grabbed a couple of these Transcend 8GB cards. The 4gb ones are the same price for some reason. Not the fastest in the lot, but fast enough and they where cheap and I wanted 2 so I could play around. Edit: I really like that users have done benchmarks for popular cards and put the screenshots on amazon, its better than relying on the marketing for them.

Jamsta posted:Got my ModMyPi case today... Oh cool, Hows the quality of the plastic? This is one of the cheaper cases I've seen. I was thinking of waiting for whatever official design they go with, but who knows how long that will be(and then how long till they are available).
