Does anyone know if I need to get an SD card to install the OS on it or I can just use a USB stick on RPi?
@zhuanny aprox 40 dlls with priority shipping
@William thanks!!
@netomx what are you gonna do with that pi?
I am afraid that booting that thing up with a SD card is the only option.
@NanoG6 web server for now
Damn, need to buy another SD card....
Make sure it's at least Class-4.
wake up and connect my RPi haha
I sent a 32GB SD CARD, class 4 (yes, I'm cheap) haha
Will take a week or so, we wait for rack hardware.
Ow thx @William
@William any chance you can post a pic of what the pi's look like in your DC?
Very unlikely.
@William - my pi has arrived (yay!), but it might be a few weeks until I've got an SD card ready to send to you. I heard space is filling up fast, so can I pre-order or is it first-come, first-served?
@William has them in empty condom boxes! sitting on the shelf between 2 book ends.
Maybe I was wishing for too much, but man my RPi is insanely slow haha. Using a 32GB class10 card that writes around 17MB/s on my computer. I think even my most oversold VPS is faster.
We have underaged kids on LET
17MB/sec is awesome, that's almost twice Class 10. Or... what exactly did you expect from an SD card, SSD-grade performance? And yes, even any of those $12-15/year VPS will outperform the R-Pi at pretty much anything.
But the geek factor of the RPi is much higher
There goes Hostbluff's dream for further business expansions...
Yeah I think I will craigslist my 512mb RPi. I guess it could be a decent mediaplayer?
is this spam?
no.

@William: have you got my USB and other stuff yet? Thanks!
