I finally ordered some bits for mine today. Hopefully I'll be able to find some fun uses for it, but I'm thinking it could be interesting to use for LaFrenchUn's Python course.

Yep, I'm about to order a PiBox, a PSU and a flush-fit MicroSD adapter (and a large capacity MicroSD card). I have a little wifi media keyboard/trackpad that should serve my living room purposes very well indeed.

You know what? I've had my R-Pi for around 3 months and I haven't played with it yet properly. I tried hooking it up and everything worked except the display so was going to get another HDMI cable but just haven't gotten round to it yet. Thanks for the reminder.

Mark, turn Pointless on, it's Returning Doctor Who characters in the final round (just missed Northern Ireland round)
This is why I also turned it off... the Daleks?

ugh I had a feeling you woudn't take that post serious (because it was me that posted it) when I was being 1000% honest  sticks like sh*t is a REAL company brand and it really does do what it says in a very good way, ask the twits too see if they use sticks like sh*t paste aswell  or try looking it up to see that I am being serious, noob!

I got the Pi up and running on my TV - I bought a 16GB MicroSD card locally, it runs off a 5v mobile phone charger - and my case will arrive on friday.
The only problem I have is getting it to run my Netgear N150 wifi dongle.

But they are not tiles. These are the shower cubicle sheets. Nevermind. Mark

My local shops are really annoying. You have to get 2 bottles of wine with every purchase
