[AccessD] Raspberry Pi

I have read a lot of "it's too slow" comments from the (PC using) press, and I expect that is true. 
  The general consensus is that it is the equivalent of a 1995 PC, in terms of processing power and 
memory.  However it has an outsized video processor.  If that video processor can be put to work as 
a general processor then we could have some awesome applications.  Likewise, throw a small SSD on a 
usb port and you have an instant, pretty fast, pretty large storage.

What I expect to really happen is the Linux community to rally and bring back the tightly coded apps 
that used to be so common on Linux.  This thing only has 256 Megs of RAM with no RAM expansion 
possible so what ya get is what ya get.  However there is a huge community building as we speak.  My 
hope is that something like the old Commodore 64 happens - huge sales, rabid fan base, lots of apps, 
lots of fun.
