Well, I finally have a Raspberry PI on its way. After the usual play time, I intend to use it as a dedicated weather server to replace the Windows XP box I'm using now. Back to the books to refresh my memory for Linux! I really hope to get to to Design Notes for the next meeting.

Thanks to all who let me know about the Lower Bucks Hackerspace meeting. Seeing the Raspberry Pi was interesting. Looking forward to the next meeting at the electronics shop in Upper Southampton.

I think the word has to be put out there to get more activity. (As if you didn't know that already)
I belong to a Nixie tube site where processors became a way of life with the occasional Strowger phone stepper relay clock or exceedingly populated multi-board non-processor decade counting clock..and so on..... The biggest challange was the passionate disagreements over which type of processor...PIC v everything else!
I'm not up on Arduino or the multitude of available attachments. Shields?
More later,
