i was thinking of buying a raspberry pi for more curiousity than anything and to test out the xbmc port to it i was thinking of using the openelec version for it but the one on raspbmc has a simply windows installer like normal openelec so probably try that first
now obviously it is not going to be lightning fast but curious as to whether it is worth getting one espeically at this stage the wait time is about 5 weeks so if i am going to get one i want to get the ball rolling on getting it delivered as soon as possible
does anyone have one and can comment on it i would only use it for xbmc as i have no linux knowledge whatsoever also curious being that storage is limited to sd and usb drives if the 100mbps ethernet is powerful enough to stream 1080 videos over the network from my file server i am currently using a gigabit network so don't know what the performance of a slower network is like
