The question about resources should be addressed to technical people. Raspberry Pi is using a dedicated version of Debian called Raspbian and the port to ARM has happened withing the port of Debian to ARM. In term of minimal resources, I am using LO with full features to show large presentations (I do this intentionally) on a 2002 Acer TravelMate with the Intel Centrino processor (single core) and 1GB of RAM based on Linux Mint Debian Edition (but I do not know if these are the minimal requirements). Anyway, on this PC it works like a charm even with very large slide decks including large images and video. I am not aware of any comparison between LO and other software on ARM, but the software has been available for a very short time and I do not think anyone has had the time to test. In addition, I am not aware of other office suites available on the Raspberry Pi. -- Italo Vignoli - [email protected] mob +39.348.5653829 - VoIP [email protected] skype italovignoli - gtalk [email protected] -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to [email protected] Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
