A little bit late, but i purchased one. The reason for Beaglebone instead of Rasberry is because it is an open source project and Beaglebone is stronger in IO, Rasberry is stronger in video. My experiences so far; The standard out of the box OS is Angstrom, an OS based on busybox. For me this os was not very useful for me because perl wasn't standard, hard to install extra modules, no automount, NIS etc. ssh stopped responding a few times. I installed Debian on an the SD card, this is a standard debian os. Even owfs can be installed directly via apt-get. see http://elinux.org/BeagleBoardDebian I've setup a test with owfs with the ds2480 and a ds18B20, it was working without trouble. I want to use the ds2482-800, this can also be bought as an expansion board. http://elinux.org/Category:BeagleBoard_Expansion_Boards Be continued,
