Excellent explanation of the raspberry pi
Good explanation of the raspberry pi. What it can do and how to do it. Explains about the OS Raspian, the xbmc media center. How to setup the pi as your home or office computer. I was curious about the Raspberry Pi because of its low cost. Now I feel more educated about the Raspberry pi and now have a clear idea what I'm going to do with it.
