Pi in action

Having now sourced all the additional bits to get my Raspberry Pi working, I finally got it powered up. I had a small issue as I didn't know what the username and password had been set to. After a quick look at the Raspberry Pi site I was able to access Debian in all its glory. Next I wrote the obligatory "hello Pi" app in Python which fortunately worked first time. Next is to buy a wireless USB dongle from eBay and to think about building a box to put all this in. Here is a screen shot of the rather "in-ya-face" background.
