A long  time ago that I haven't updated my Blog, I hope that this year the updates come more fast with more news. Since the last update there was so many projects that I have done that when I have time I will post here. For now I will post my recent buy, an Raspberry Pi Model B:

Software Review:

I installed several SOs and there are a little review for the ones that I have tryed:

• Raspian: it have a behaviour like an "normal" SO but for some operations like open the browser, open a Web Page with some flash we notice that it's slow;
• OpenElec: it's a multimedia SO with xbmc, it's very fast because it's a lightweight SO with a few programs. It's very limited but it does what is supposed to do.
• RaspBMC: that's the SO that I have installed now, it's more slow than OpenElec but it's Debian based and comes with apt-get tool, so it's more customizable  and I want to make some modifications on XBMC so I opt by this distribution. 

It's all for now. From now on I will post some helpful scripts and modified Add-Ons to watch better TV.
