Well the Raspberry Pi is based on an ARM chip. Does anyone know how these chips compare when running RJDJ or libPD applications?</div><div style="font-size:12pt">
<span style="font-size:12pt">Perhaps this is a possibility, without too much modification of libPD or even RJDJ.</span><br></div><div style="font-size:12pt">

<div>Er..well I can see they run Linux, so I think I was mistaken. My head was in the world of BASIC - nostalgia gets in the way of the facts!</div><div>Of course, Pd would need to be compiled for the hardware.</div><div>
<br></div><div>I think we need to wait until one of us gets one and tries it out before we find out what they're capable of. I've expressed interest, but they're massively oversubscribed.</div></div></div></div>
