"The first Raspberry Pi is just bare circuit board for now but
developers at Toronto?s Seneca College have worked hard to fit a
Fedora image on to a 2GB SD card to boot the computer into a GUI,
complete with a small suite of applications and admin tools.
"The environment is fairly basic on one level ? just a word
processor, Firefox and support for several programming languages ?
and the team admits it has yet to hook the 2D graphics in the remix
into the powerful graphics hardware on the Raspberry Pi."
