I suspect so, the PI3 has quad core 64-bit capable 1.2GHz processor. The PI3
seems to be about 50% faster than the PI2. It also runs about code about as
fast as a 2 GHz Pentium 4. But the ethernet interface is via a USB bridge (or
maybe some other serial interface on the PI3). Not the best way to do
things... Also, the current PI Linux distros are all 32-bit.
I have the sound file issue worked out (system() a background shell that
invokes aplay). My old code left off the & on the shell command and it was not
returning until the sound finished... d'oh
I also have the PI color issue resolved...
Now to finish up the serial port init code... Oh, and also the ethernet
socket code...
I'm picking up one of those 7" PI LCD screens tomorrow... should make for a
nice package. But they cost twice what the PI does...
