Er..well I can see they run Linux, so I think I was mistaken. My head was in
the world of BASIC - nostalgia gets in the way of the facts!
Of course, Pd would need to be compiled for the hardware.
I think we need to wait until one of us gets one and tries it out before we
find out what they're capable of. I've expressed interest, but they're
massively oversubscribed.
On the other hand, the idea of a dedicated PDOS isn't a bad idea...

Even if it was just the PD core, it would enhance the educational scope of the
Raspberry Pi - which is the whole point of this single-board computer (I
learned my first programming on a Sinclair ZX Spectrum in the 1980s).
