is any one going to get the raspberry pi
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Down the line, maybe. I work in a school where anything that small is likely to get broken and/or nicked if it isn't carefully tracked, so something that small is best left to the schools with fewer kleptomaniacs and vandals.

In my school the kids used to steal the mouse balls :lol:
I'm planning to buy one when they become available again. I work as a programmer, it's exciting to see a computer so cheap.
I want to see what video files it will actually play first. I'm interested in running XBMC on it.

I presume you know there's a video showing XBMC running on it? http://www.raspberrypi.org/archives/571 It can play full-HD video comfortably, as it has a fairly decent GPU.
cool...i wonder what kind of connection it uses from the power supply. Doesn't look like a molex 4 pin
[QUOTE="blaznwiipspman1"]It will surely come with it's own power brick. It might not since people are usually flooded with microusb chargers from their cellphones.cool...i wonder what kind of connection it uses from the power supply. Doesn't look like a molex 4 pin

Yeah I have seen the video. I'm just curious what file formats it will play with ease. So far they have only said the gpu decodes H.264 files.
It looks like a cheap easy way to use a pc with a tv and take it with you.
I'm so gonna overclock it.
