<t>It will help ARM and the foundries that Intel and AMD are approaching a barrier in die size. This could let the foundries start to catch up some. The barrier is something like 18 nanometers. Intel has always been lazy when it came to power usage, especially in there chipset mounted GPU's. Now tha...

Just the CPU was run on the solar cell the rest of the computer was plugged in. Considering the size of the solar cell that is still no mean feat. The newer model atoms have a GPU on them just like the RasPi SoC. So they can eat a lot of juice to run.

<t>Are there any cards that do not have the wear leveling that could be used to confirm it was wear leveling? I know there are other strategies used to prevent wear on flash cards. Another avenue, are there any SD cards that have substantial write cache or buffer to overcome the write speed problem?...

Lob0426

<t>Ah wear leveling is not an untarnished magic bullet. There will have to be testing with all of the "classes" of SD card for performance on the RasPi. There will also be some tweaking that there just is not time for the Devs to do. So far the figures are pretty good. It would be interes...

<t>The book and the other stuff would be the profit. I bought a Linux manual years ago and it had a full distro of Linux in it, can't remember which now. But it was a factory disk from that distro, not a copy the book author had made and stuck in the back. I am sure a deal could be worked...

Lob0426

<t>lol: in fact I have ran into people that were Linux virgins that left Linux on their netbook. Their main complaint, Flash videos wouldn't play. Their main comment was on how fast it loaded compared to windows. Smart phones have helped also in both Linux and ARM. Again the refer to the title of th...

<t>The question of windows on RasPi has came up more than a few times here in this forum. And though I believe that Linux IS the proper choice for RasPi. The question will keep coming up. As to the question as to who would pay many times the cost of the base device for windows? Why most likely the p...

Lob0426

<t>I would like to see something, heck anything give windows a run for its money, But the more Raspii sold the more the foundation can give to their goal, children. If Microsoft wants to do the work to get it on the RasPi and people will buy it. If that means Win8 gets it's foot in, So Be It. I will...

<t>Lets see Raspberry Pi: Model A $25 Model B $35 SD Card preloaded $10 Book $30 Vinyl Case $10 Your right we will have to have it for $75 for an Model A and $85 for a Model B. But for the $99 they could throw in a HDMI cable and a foldable keyboard with a Mo...

If a million RasPii are sold, you do not think microsoft would contact Broadcom and see what could be done?

Lob0426

<t>So heres a idea for you all! A "Raspberry Pi (and programming in Linux) for Dummies" Book. Bundle a cased Raspberry Pi with a SD card, all in a vinyl zip case, with Debian or Fedora etc. installed. Plus programming software tools. Shoot for a sales price of $99 Sell me ...

Lob0426

<t>Not that I do not agree with what you are saying, But: Windows is what people want. Linux has been around a long time. Linux's prime failure is that it has so many distributions. It has so many File managers. It has so many of everything. The general public sees Linux as a GEEK thing. People feel...

<r>Found this very small wireless router. It is not really expensive at $49.99, but not really cheap either. But it is small. It has 1 WAN and 1 LAN ports. The mini USB only provides power not full USB which is a shame. Since it is a router you can connect other computer to it wirelessly and it prov...

Lob0426

<r>Yes you can do that! I am sure many, will do that, if the final specification is 5 volt, not 6v to 20v. But the impression from the prior posts, in this thread, was providing an opening to the "Host" versus "Device" argument again. That has already been settled. It needed to be clarified on ...

Lob0426

<t>They are supposed to know in a week or so so we will find out then. If they change it to "USB power", they are talking about a 5volt supply through a "seperate" power connector, using one of the readily available power supplies. They are not talking about you plugging into "the" USB port, li...

Lob0426

<t>So far I am looking at a suggestion to set the router to boot from the Ethernet. I should be able to save the settings on the RasPi and reset the router and point it to boot from different "profiles". I would like to save my most used profiles, such as the client bridge I have set currently, and ...

<t>__Miguel_ the board will work when you get it. If you want a reset button the pads may be available to put it on the board. The GPIO headers will not be on the board. If you need them then you can add them. It sounds like there may be some other things that you might be able to add like LEDs and ...

Excellent post.

<t>Thank you jamesh! This indeed sounds like a very worthwhile project. This bring one question to mind that I have not seen in any of the forums. Phone modem support. In the developing world the only external means of communication will probably be a telephone line. This could be importa...

<t>Svartalf: what would the prospect be of using several individual RasPii, each with a USB HDD, building an array, then the RasPi become controllers? Then use another RasPi to act as a master for the others? Which would be better a USB interface or use a 10/100 switch? Let's try to look ...

<r>Here are some more transfer tests. The WRT54GSv7.2 was reset to a client bridged mode. before it was set up as wireless access point. I had network resources but no internet. In bridged mode I have it all now. As you can see if you compare it to the earlier chart it sped up considerably in b...
