The Raspberry Pi is an ultra-low-cost, deck-of-cards sized Linux computer. Developed by the Raspberry Pi Foundation in the UK, the Raspberry Pi aims to put the fun back into learning computing by promoting the study of computer science and programming at a school level.

Never had the time to properly configure the USB controller (though a more recent update had the drivers for the 360 controller already set up). The wiring setup was a bit messy for my liking (needing a USB hub, keyboard, power, HDMI, controller) but I'm sure if I had more desire I could work something out.

I've got two projects going currently.
1) Pi based XBMC build with a wireless controller for emulation. 2) An audrino based "home info center" for my wife and I that pulls in our G-Calendars, Contacts, ToDo lists, etc and throws them up on a screen in our kitchen. Makes coordinating things super easy and adding to shared grocery lists pretty simple which is good, because otherwise I suck at doing it.
Took me 2 years of owning the boards before actually doing anything with them but now I'm hooked.
