Hi,
another aspect of computing in the early eighties - not related to
heat (even if it had some potential to heat up the atmosphere) - were
the competing interests for the (sole) TV set in the house.
Kids of today can't really understand that.....
They will. Just as soon as their Raspberry Pi arrives and they want to
plug it into the TV! ;-)

I find mine *does* need an external power supply when running some
keyboards. The Apple keyboard for instance wouldn't work at all when Pi
was run off my monitor usb. I know they say 700ma, but it can be a
*lot* less than that.
I suspect a wireless keyboard (and mouse if really wanted) and the pi
would quite happily run off a TV usb output.
