Zikama Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 (edited) Worth buying one? I kinda wanna try to play around with one, and get it to record live footage, run a minecraft server or put it to my TV.

Fantabulous Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Yes its very worth, I just received 2 new ones along with some sensors which I will be using for a school project. There is loads of useful things you can use it for, but even if you don't make anything useful you still learn a lot! Google will be your best friend for information / tutorials.

Mysteryy Posted September 4, 2014 Share Posted September 4, 2014 Just read a little article about it, I have never heard of them until now. Seems like a decent idea. So basically its a tiny computer that you can run linux on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zikama Posted September 4, 2014 Author Share Posted September 4, 2014 Just read a little article about it, I have never heard of them until now. Seems like a decent idea. So basically its a tiny computer that you can run linux on? It's a credit card sized pocked pc with a 700Mhz CPU and 512MB RAM. Which can be connected with HDMI and LAN. The best thing is it's only around $35. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yesrno Posted September 5, 2014 Share Posted September 5, 2014 Yea worth it for sure, especially if you want one for "playing around". I had mine for a few months, playing around trying different OS's and services and torturing the thing:P It's now been working as a HTPC for about 6 months at my parents house, it's also a SSHFS box to stream music from. You'd be amazed what 700Mhz can do! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
