Eh?
Same!
I'll be getting one of these, what...erm, can I do with it tho?
People say it's good for learning programming etc, why is this? Just because it's a simple PC or...?
Very cool tho.
I think this is almost a certainty.

Because it's linux!
Damn this is annoying, here is the actual link uk.farnell.com/jsp/bespoke/bespoke7.jsp?ICID=I-RASP-HPBLOF-0015&bespokepage=farnell/en_UK/promotions/raspberryPi.jsp
I reckon it will, will make great use for stuff like In Car PCs etc.
If I didn't already have a cheap PC knocking around for XBMC this would be ideal.

WHY are so many people being suckered in to this crap ?
Just buy yourself a mini/pico system for only a few bucks more that is 1000s of times more powerful.
Managed to place my order at Farnell
Order ? o_O Don't kid yourself mate - You've just signed up to the now massive RS spam list

Yes but don't get your hopes up .... It's obvious demand will outstrip supply.
What I'm peeved with is how much publicity this crappy little company has had. Twitter, Facebook the beeb

And then they will make more? Ill just have to wait, I don't mind.
Its getting all this publicity because its marketed very well. Ive never been into coding that much but maybe spending £25 on this will be the little jump i need to further my skills, if so awesome, if not. Well I still have a media centre
I put one in the basket at Farnell (a model B) and it was £32 before shipping was added (I can't add shipping now as it's brought up a form). So I'm guessing about £35 in total? Although I will still get one for messing around with it's certainly more expensive than I thought.
Subliminal Aura, why are you so venomous towards it - it's a great idea for all kinds of uses for those of us technically minded. I can understand not wanting one but you seem really angry over it.
