My job uses Atoms and cloud.

It sucks total shit. Horribly slow and actually hurts production. ARM would only exasperate the issue.

It may be the future, but that future isn't viable for a long time to come.

yea i didnt say it was great right now :laugh: but it is coming. i use it at work and it is very fast since we RDP into a VM on a fiber backbone. companies like intel and amd won't survive forever on bulk desktop sales. arm has the right approach and is ahead in that regard but no doubt intel has an arsenal of awesome just waiting to be unleashed. amd is like the retarded child who wont enter the game until it can sue intel and have some capital to start research :toast:

December 1st, We have PCBs!

We’ve made 100 of these betas, which will now be populated with components (I don’t have an ETA from Pete on the completed boards, but I promise you I’m as keen to find out as you are). Raspberry Pis from this very first, small batch, will be going on sale when they’ve been tested, most likely via an auction so that we can raise some money from those collectors who are very keen to get their hands on devices with a very low serial number. I can’t make any promises here, as it all depends on how they perform in testing, but we anticipate that happening before the end of the year. As soon as they’re finished, we’ll be starting production in earnest.

Two more pics at the source.
