Well, the release of Raspberry Pi into the wilds went "well".
Interest was so great that both Farnell's and RS discovered an
effective DDOS "attack" on their servers this morning.
The tinkerers are taking over again! I've got my order in - I missed
the first 100,000 even at 06:25 this AM.
Cheers,
Norm.
I see someone has pre-ordered 10 and is offering on ebay for £95
each. I thought only one per person was allowed. Wish we could rid
ourselves of these "touts" trying to collar the market.

I'm happy to wait until the market settles, and then perhaps we shall be
able to buy over the counter locally at Stockport RS counter to avoid
carriage.
My simple need is to replace the bulky QL, and also having to keep
spares just to do my little apps. I've usb hubs, wireless usb keyboard
and usb floppies which do me. I just haven't the time or skills to set
it up. I'm going to have to rely on help, probably from the local group
or a workshop. I take it that this will be getting the right stuff on
the SD card.
