Has anyone seen this?
http://www.raspberrypi.org/
It's apparently a $35 Linux/GNU computer in a very small package. According to their site:
What’s a Raspberry Pi?
The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer that plugs into your TV and a keyboard. It’s a capable little PC which can be used for many of the things that your desktop PC does, like spreadsheets, word-processing and games. It also plays high-definition video. We want to see it being used by kids all over the world to learn programming.
It seems like this would be in interesting way to build a low-cost brewhouse controller system. Between this card and an Arduino (or netduino), you could build some pretty cool functionality into a single, small, box.
Thoughts?
