The RPi workshop was totally worthwhile, even tho I only got to go for the last 2.5 hours, so I missed all the presentations. :( I arrived behind the eight-ball @2:30, without even a distro loaded on my SDcard, Brian took care of that for me in short order to get me up & running - thank you! & another guy walked me through the setup. (Ugh - I'm really bad w/names & faces, so please forgive me & please reintroduce yourself to me again at the next meeting!) I got Atari games & Libra office installed on the Raspbian desktop, talked about projects - was told my streaming Netflix gamelan would be a no-go :-( Also shared the library books I brought & ate homemade raspberry pie baked Brian's wife. Mmmmmm! Saturday I also showed my RPi to a very interested Staff Member for the SMM's Kitty Anderson Youth Science Center, while there for a parent's meeting prior to my arrival @TIES. I'll have to get to work on my RPi skills because I volunteered to be a parent volunteer when they add the RPi to their Arduinos in the Student Lab. :-) & let me not to forget to mention, I got a one-on-one demo of the GPIO interface by setting up lights on a breadboard (no soldering required if you purchase Adafruit's Starter Kit.) Again, I'm bad w/names/faces :( So please know I appreciate it everything & forgive me for not shouting out thank yous by name!
