    What’s not to like about a functional mini cpu for under $100.

    What’s not to like about a functional mini cpu for under $100.
    It’s awesome what’s not to like about it. I’m using it to learn Linux command line and how to code in C and python. Codeblocks works great and the python program. Noob Word of advice use official raspberry flash program to flash sd card and burn official rasbian image onto it. If the card is greater than 16GB use the raspberry pi flash program to erase and reformat as a fat52 then burn the image. Then when you boot rasbian use sudo raspi-config to choose the option to recover all excess memory hogged by root.(Connect to WiFi first and change password by entering passwd in command line). Enter default rasbian password and change it. Then use sudoapt-get update, and sudo apt-get upgrade, then sudo apt-get dust-upgrade.
