    Default What about ye

    Hi from Belfast, bit of a noob with the whole techy stuff but hoping it's not too late to teach an older dog new tricks. I Like researching and learning about anything and everything. Latest interest to have piqued my attention is the pi and have started a wee project. Thats the height of it so far I think

    Welcome to Digital Forums.

    Forum etiquette is quite high on the list here, like in real life you treat others with respect and you equally get it back. Contributing to the threads with good constructive posts gets you noticed for all the good reasons. Digging up old threads and the one word posts/replies to threads gets you marked as a post booster; this is not the best way to get you going on DF. With time your post count will go up and you will have full use of the forum. This has been put in place to stop Spammers, Leechers and generally1 post users that want something for nothing, they try and get it and go.

    Digital forums has been going for years and has a large fan base. Some actually pay for the privilege and they get bonuses over non sub people. With time you will build up friends and likewise you will be seen here as someone that can contribute to the DF Community.

    Enjoy your stay

    Yeah I think I've only scraped the tip of the iceberg and prob will have quite a few over the coming years. So cheap and I'm sure the possibilities really are endless. If it can be imagined, it could probably be done

    Asus have made a Rasp PI alternative. Currently overpriced even though it is far more powerful but keep your eye on the price tag, I suspect a lot of unused second hand ones will surface as is usually the case :-)
