I arrived today! Joy of Joys!  :applaud:

Now to figure out how I can get all the emulators running on this little guy, and code some python scripts.

This PC is really small.  I thought the Pi devs opted for a MicroSD port, but I have a full size one. Excellent.

Threadjack - those who have the Pi in hand, comments please on the suitability for:

1. Running an MP3 jukebox? Don't really care which as long as it has some sort of decent GUI and can pull off a network share. Touch screen monitor hookup? I'm going to guess it's a no on that one?

2. Booting straight up into a slideshow, again preferably running off a share but not required, with the monitor in portrait mode.

Thanks!

You people with a Pi in hand ought to throw those bad boys on eBay and double (or more) your money.
