Much as I love Pis and ARM, unless you are doing something with GPIOs/hardware, you might be better off getting a second hand thin client PC, like a Dell Wyse.
Yeah I was actually thinking of buying a ThinkCentre or an Optiplex, but I’ll have to see. It’s just a project that I have for the moment. It would be fun to tinker with the hardware of the Pi though, I’ve seen so many cool stuff you can do with it.
Yer Pis are good for lots of stuff, just not such great home servers. Bit under powered for the money and not good for disks. I’m still a bit grumpy they aren’t more of a normal ARM device with U-Boot. Yes I know you can add U-Boot, but it has it’s own (closed) fat boot loader, rather than something minimal as normal.
Yeah clearly not the optimal choice here, but I think it’s enough for my use-case. The form factor is also something I can appreciate, as I move around quite a bit. When I’ll get a more permanent home, I’ll definitively take something more appropriate
