The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card-sized single-board computer developed in
the UK by the Raspberry Pi Foundation with the intention of promoting the
teaching of basic computer science in schools.
The Pi is also something never befofe seen in computing - a system the
size of a credit card that runs a STANDARD LINUX KERNEL!
More than a "Programmable Controller" like an Arduino, a standard kernel
makes possible applications like Email, Media Player, Web server, even a
VOIP phone system!
On Wednesday, we will see how the Pi is great for the educational world,
but can easily be used for ANY 'low horsepower' application! We will build
a working media center for playing MP3 streaming radio stations, and see
how other applications are possible.
