::What is a RaspberryPi exactly,

It is an ARM based single board PC, runs on Linux which needs to be added=20
by you. Will be interesting to see if MS's W8 WOA (Windows On ARM) will run=
=20
on it later this year. - see www.liliputing.com for more details.

::and where do I get more information, given that the site you linked
::doesn't even provide any onward links?

hits, yesterday you would have been able to get to the current Debian=20
download (will be replaced by Fedora) and the forum plus general=20
information.

there, I've listed the part# to search for, or alternatively search for=20
Raspberry Pi (the space is important).

I guess that Farnell and RS were overloaded as they were offline at one=20
point, I doubt that Farnell perform web upgrades at 8am in the morning as=20
their banner at the time stated.
