Specific to the Raspberry PI's versus the beaglebone. However, a lot of that information is universal.

Dont treat this as an rPI endorsement however. I much prefer the beaglebone in most cases, but the rPI, specifically the rPI's has many good points too. -- For more options, visit http://beagleboard.org/discuss --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "BeagleBoard" group.
