Raspberry pi

Raspberry piBy: John paulo laygo5th year studenthistoryIn 2006, early concepts of the Raspberry Pi were based on the Atmel ATmega644 microcontroller. Its schematics and PCB layout are publicly available. Foundation trustee Eben Upton assembled a group of teachers, academics and computer enthusiasts to devise a computer to inspire children. The computer is inspired by Acorn's BBC Micro of 1981. The first ARM prototype version of the computer was mounted in a package the same size as a USB memory stick. It had a USB port on one end and an HDMI port on the other.Raspberry pi accessory

Then power it by connecting a Micro USB cable to the Pi and powering it via a computer or a USB wall charger8. You should see something like the following, an Adafruit/Raspberry logo in the top left, and a ton of text filling up the screen

Network setupWhat youll need:1. raspberry pi2. Ethernet network cable3. Wifi Dongle4. Router5. Internet ConnectionInstructions:Setting up Wired Network1. Plug the Ethernet patch cable into the back of your home network router and the Raspberry PI.

2. As soon as you plug your Pi in, you should see the network LEDs start to flicker.3. For most home networks, you should also be able to connect to the Internet without any further configuration. For this to work, your router should be configured for DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol).
