Raspberry Pi

Has anyone played around with a Raspberry Pi? I really like the idea but can't think of anything I could use one for.

Basically they are small single board computers that can be programmed for lot's of uses. It's not like a PC, it's got no screen,keyboard etc. People tend to use them as controlers for other things or creating mini robots etc. If you want more info have a look Here

Okay, the Pi is made in Wales but that's not the reason I like it. It seems so versatile. I just wish I could find a (good) use for one.

That's what I'm afraid it would end up with if I got one. Then again it might just help pass the time when I'm stuck, as I am most weeks, in a hotel room in the evenings. The joys of working away from home
