[Deaf-lug] newbie here

[Andy Hearn]

Hi Matt (and everyone else)

I ordered mine at 7am on its big day, 59mins and 59seconds too late
according to the foundation.  I'm now being sent regular emails from RS
'reassuring' me that I will eventually get a board...

I'm tempted to jump straight to ArchLinux once I've had a play with the
pre-packaged Fedora.  Its potential is "scary" too - so much that can be
done and there isn't enough days in a year!

Anyone else out there hailing from London?   Be good to start an informal
get-together once the RPi boards enter 'normal' production??

Andy
