Parallella uses an ARM 9 chip and the Raspberry Pi uses an ARM 7. Is ARM 9
just newer and backward compatible with ARM 7 , or is it a totally
different instruction set?  The reason I ask is that the Raspberry Pi apps
use armhf (depending upon the distro I think) so would those apps work or
is a new version required?
