The RPi sure is an amazing machine for the $35. I have one, and tinker with it all too often

Nice. I have one but I have not touched it. Sad because it really deserves my attention The wife would rather me play with her in my spare time. If I am making money it's all good

There are so many cool projects I can do with my Grandson who is 5 1/2 years old. Little young but good for spending quality time with him.

You guys got any trusted sellers to recommend getting a couple?

I've looked but not really keen on Ebay... I dont care if its plain or not as I would order a case separate or if it comes with case thats fine too... I hear there is an Upgraded model with more ram?

I got mine here some time ago. I ordered mine back when they were first taking orders and got it like 3 or 4 months later. I assume that is not the situation any more. I bought a nice bundle of accessories as well. The Bud Industries PP-11593 enclosure is cool as all get out, I got that recently. I also made a case out of an old tin cookie box.

Just to be different, like I always am, I am going to purchase one of these in the near future to play with....

Amazon.com: Rikomagic MK802 III Dual Core Android 4.1 Jelly Bean Mini PC Rockchip RK3066 1.6Ghz Cortex A9 1GB RAM 8G ROM HDMI (Black): Electronics

Friend of mine has one and he says for a Dual core it's darn nifty...
