It's here!



Now get the bugger up and running and get it customised...

I'm thinking Lego case, or maybe a Mechano one for industrial look!

Just got Wheezy Pi on it and up and running without problems.

Powered off in the the box again whilst I plan a case, case to include a powered USB hub too since I'll need USB Game Pads for it

When I get underway probably start a worklog

Yeah I saw that on The Register - class!

Mine needs are more simple: 32GB SD Card, & MAME!

Not yet but that's the first thing I looked at!!!

800Mhz with no voltage, increasing voltage sets a permanent bit in the chip so no warranty.

I've got a second one ordered - when that arrives going to jerry-rig a cooler from an old P1 and see what's possible :D

Going to be testing in VirtualBox to make everything works before transposing to the Pi!

Well it works great

I'll get some pics up once I've built a box - anyone know anyone with a 3D printer?

I got a Pi running XMBC as a media player, found playback a bit choppy.
