Whilst I'm not denigrating it, all this publicity of development boards
etc. is missing the concept of the Rpi, which is to just connect the
necessary ancillaries and use it for program development by
youngsters, not circuit design. They're already using SCRATCH I
understand which is just for making things work on the screen by
complex sprites; but it does get them planning things in detail, even
if only a sort of film storyboard.

Hi Bryan,
Yes, there is a sort of philosophy around encouraging "program
development by young people".
Yet, once it is 'out in the wild' it will get used for whatever people
feel challenged and inspired to do.
Which, I anticipate, will be quite remarkable ... and bring back a lot
of 'fun' too in to the 'computing' world, along the way.
