I will surprise myself with a Raspberry Pi 2 for Christmas

[Bot Solutions]

I am not confident about releasing my source codes to hosting companies, so I made a decision and just purchased a Raspberry Pi 2 (model b)!!!
I'm so excited haha. Can't wait get my bots run on it 24/7.

I used to work with 10+ year old notebooks, but they are noisy, big, and waste too much power.
All I will need with this is an ethernet cable and a phone charger lol.

Hope everything goes well with my delivery and my package will arrive before/at Christmas.

I have one - but don't be too confident on being able to run many bots simultaneously on it arty:

Congratulations i think........ no idea what a Raspberry Pi 2 is.

I prefer using virtual OS on my home computer for such purposes, it's easy to backup and system resources are easily scalable if I need them.

I have it too and it's not very fast.. good enough for kodi, but multiple bots? .. naw

A Raspberry Pi is a mini computer for 20-35 dollars with ARM prossesor the same as a mobile phone so it cant run windows or other x86 operating system. so you need a raspberry pi operating system,
I did heart something about windows 10 supporting ARM.

How can you surprise yourself if you already know you are going to surprise yourself?

Well it does not have to be fast.. I can just create a swap partition for more ram lol.

You might want to check this out instead: http://www.hardkernel.com/main/products/prdt_info.php for a much beefier alternative.

What kind of pi is that?

Well as I see it comes with a fan, in case of rpi, I just wanted "toy" I can play around with. I would rather invest in building a server if i needed something stronger than that.

Anyways, I decided to not to go with rpi 2 after some research. I found out that there is a much cheaper alternative for what i need.

It's even stronger slightly, but only costs $15. It's not about the money.. but why i would pay more than twice of the amount for the same thing ahah.

One of the advantages of being schizophrenic is that you can surprise yourself on christmas day!
