Long term readers will remember that I turned my original Xbox into a Linux running media centre. My original plan was to buy some USB NES controllers - they're about the right size, but with only two buttons I'd be restricted to playing, well, old NES games. Now, don't get me wrong, this has been done many times before - but I think I've come up with a unique twist. Then it struck me - turn it into a games console! Ok, so what can I do with a wafer-thin Linux box? I had thought of turning it into a simple door sensor, or perhaps wiring it in to a lightswitch, or swallowing it to see if I would get super powers. In related news, is the best wife of them all! #PiZero /utsF2m13jo How small and cheap? They give it away free on the cover of magazines.
It's an ultra small and ridiculously cheap computer. My wife picked me up the new Raspberry Pi Zero.
