Raspberry Pi
-
Hello
First I did a quick search, and it didn't give me any results for "raspberry", if there is any branch out there hiding delete this! ;D
Well, has no one here got a Raspberry Pi?? It's not the most advanced equipment in the world, but looking for minimum space and minimum consumption, it has no competition.
I have it running 24/7 for BitTorrent, and it's going pretty well.
Here I leave you a little photo of the creature:
Cheers!

I have ordered two, they are supposed to arrive in September, to display two Nagios. We thought it was the most economical alternative to display a web browser.
-
I have a colleague who received two units a few weeks ago (one by mistake xD), but I have no idea what he is using it for, except that he has a debian installed (if my memory does not fail me). The truth is that the 'gadget' itself is incredibly small.
-
well I didn't know about that toy :wall: thanks for the info …. luckily curiosity and Mr. Google help out.
I'm not going to copy and paste from the wiki because I feel bad about it ;D
more or less what I've seen so far: size = the size of a credit card, storage system: SD card (reminds me of 5 1/4 disks) processor 700 mhz ram memory 256 (model A) price: model A 25 B 35 (US dollars) (model B without VAT and without shipping costs 27.43)

P.D when I find out how the toy is powered I'll comment on it -
for now the cheapest one I've found.
Buy Pluggable power supply, plug-in, EU, ErP, 5V, 1.2A, USB RS HNP06-MicroUSB at RS Online and you will receive it in 24/48 hours.
although I understand that any mobile / console charger with mini USB output and 5V should work
regards
another thing would be the amperage if we decide to plug in a USB drive with power via board like the one in the photo …. I don't know -

by the way the "box" with pieces of tent or lego looks cool ;D
but it's a bit big, isn't it?

by the way the "box" with ten-tent pieces or lego is really cool ;D
but it's a bit big, isn't it?
regardsThe box is just right in width, and a bit taller than necessary, but anyway, even so the size is minimal

The box is just the right width, and a bit taller than necessary, but anyway, the size is still minimal
no more than anything I was talking about the width after all the board is the size of a pack of cigarettes and comparatively with the hard drive … well that's it.
anyway thanks for the input I find the little one very interesting. what ram distribution have you put in it?
regards -
This is a machine In Stock MK802 Android 4.0 Mini PC IPTV Google Internet TV Smart Android Box 1GB RAM 4GB ROM Allwinner A10 to see who has the balls to order it... because the store is not sure. -
yes, but 6 months warranty!
the truth is that it comes with everything: hdmi cable, hdmi to dvi adapter, F.A etc etc but... it's not the same
regards -
here they explain a little more, although the most interesting thing is the nissan GTR that appears at the end on the left

I forgot to mention it to my brother-in-law, who also saw it in RS and hasn't said he ordered anything, and you see, you have yours with how long this takes. Let's see if I see him this weekend in case he gets inspired. In RS you could only order one per person, right?
-
they allow you to order more (theoretically but the deadlines are in:
Dispatch expected in 17 week(s)
better look at the other distributor that I think is in 4 weeks
and on the net today I saw a guy selling it new for 47 euros or something like that.

Yorus, I ordered it in November
I signed up for the pre-order, and it arrived about a month ago…You can now buy as many as you want, the limit of one per person is no longer in place

I have wanted to buy one for a long time. I think it's a very interesting gadget that could replace many functions of a PC emule. In addition, the pins for connecting low-level peripherals are very practical for me when connecting microcontrollers and so on.
Out of curiosity, how is the operating system installed? Can it be installed on a hard drive instead of on the SD card? Can any operating system compiled for ARM be installed?

Ah, perfect then, I will ask among friends for a group order, although without haste, of course.

Right now you have to install it on the SD, although then you can use a USB drive to store things which is what I do.
Regarding the OS, I understand that if the OS is compiled for ARM it could work, but there are some official images of Debian and Arch, which are specifically designed for the Raspberry Pi. I use raspbian (raspbian.org) which is currently the most up to date.
It can replace an emulePC as you say, but with certain limitations. The main drawbacks I see are:
- Just enough RAM: It only has 256 MB. For a Linux CLI only it can work, but when you add X things are more limited
- Shared USB/NETWORK chip: We are having some problems with the number of P2P connections and USB. They will probably be fixed in the future with some new firmware.
But it has its advantages:
- Very low consumption: 5V/700A
- No noise at all
- Very small size
- More than acceptable performance for the price

Ummm, the limitation of the number of connections is a problem although I am sure that over time it will be solved via software. The issue is that I have been doing things with the ATMega328P using the arduino bootloader for a while and the Raspberry would be perfect for doing certain tasks whose complexity cannot be addressed by a microcontroller such as obtaining a sound of certain quality or access to the network with all the functions and protocols that one wants. On top of that it is TTL which guarantees electrical compatibility.
Surely one will fall in a matter of one or two months.

hello. well, here's my little contribution to this interesting topic.
what alternatives do we have to the Raspberry pi B? well, I'll detail that below.
Via APC
FXI Cotton Candy
MK802
BeagleBoard
Mele A1000
initially I did this in word but in the copy paste it came out as crap, so here's a picture.
best regards
