New Pi anyone

[eek]

The Raspberry pi 2 model b has just been released.

4x the memory of the previous model
Quad core processor and supposedly at least 6 times faster.

Once I've got my Xmas Pi going I'll let you know

(I think I damaged the chip when I put a heatsink on it...)

I've backed the Pimoroni project on Kickstarter, so I'll get a new Pi2 when that ships.

[eek]

You can even run windows on it

Microsoft Windows on Devices

Yeah, MS are specifically targeting W10 for it. Pretty neat IMO.

Do you plan on doing pointless things six times faster, or six times as many pointless things in the same time?

[unixman]

Ordered from RS. I plan on going six impossible things before breakfast.

If this Pi thing doesn't increase your day rate, get you laid, or go from 0 -60 in under 4 seconds, it seems as pointless as Celebrity Big Brother Dancing on Ice....

I have a reason for using which the previous version doesn't quite achieve. This should resolve that problem for less than the next solution...
