:lol:
How about a raspberry pi area? Or an area for pi and other similar boards?
(don't have one, but hope to get one soon - - do have an Arduino Uno, but don't think Linux will fit)

Eventually we can make a sticky thread in hardware for that topic as I posted one article on that topic already. As we get more members we can create a separate area if we get some interest.

Interesting title to your thread.... ;)

Haha Pi I like it :lol:

I have an old Pi and I'm sure that could be a topic we could use, I also have a selection of Arduinos (Uno, Mega and a stack of ProMinis for small projects) so that could also feature soon, I know they are not quite Linux but the software to use it is :D

Several decades ago (more than 2!) I knew Pi to 12 decimal places. Can't remember why I memorised it out that far, just remember I did. And I only remember it as far as I put as a title. Funny thing - my home address is Pi to two decimal places! :D 314

Altho I don't have a Raspberry I do have a interest in them and hope to get one soon. So I tend to read articles/posts about them (and watch videos!)

I got my Pi as a freebie from a member of my local Linux User Group who hardly used it from when he bought it thinking it was going to be the latest and greatest thing! I do like it and have some plans for it, but at the moment it is sitting on the shelf waiting to be brought back to life. I have Q4OS installed on it and everything was running fine when I last used it so it's ready for that next mini project :)

You should post your experience with it Dai, as it would make a great article.

I will when I get some time, something that seems to be in short supply lately :roll: but I'm sure it will come :)

No problem as I took over a year to launch my last website.
