Raspberry pi 3

[DocClock aka MadClocker]

Ok, so the SoC (system on a chip) movement is rolling along, and I'm getting all excited at the prospect of having an emulator (retro pi) and bringing back some old school games, and the new Raspberry pi 3 model B has me turned on.. and I am wondering if any of you have played with one and what was your experience with it, and what OS's did you play with, or am I going to be the pioneer in this one?
What are your thoughts... are you going to get one, or the competition,etc.
Lemme know what you think,
Doc

I recently bought a RP2 B and have been playing with Raspbian. Right now, I'm in the process of building a RetroPi project.

I've been plannjng something similar ever since I saw this :
and then someone else pointed out this :



I had planned to jam on old desktop in the cabinet with a decent monitor as the screen.... Your post and Raspberry pi might bring this old project back to life.

Disclaimer : these are just pics lifted from the net. I didn't build these, I just find them to be inspirational and slightly on topic for the post

Yea, they have already been clustering Raspberry's for a while now. Seen that Donky Kong (pikea) table on Google+ Pretty cool, especially for Ms Packman fans that would be awesome.
