I suspect the hardest part will actually be to get your hands on the
HW :-)  It's a lovely piece of kit, can't wait until it's "properly"
available.

I'm considering building myself a little media centre, and I'd love to
base it on ARM.  Raspberry Pi looks like an excellent fit, but it's
not likely to be readily available for a while.  The other possibility
I've found, Cubox[^1], is only available for pre-order at the moment.
I so far haven't had time to research other possibilities for more
home-grown systems, but it looks like I'll have to unless I settle for
waiting a while longer.

I invented the term Object-Oriented, and I can tell you I did not have
C++ in mind.
