Title: Raspberry Pi 2
Post by: rupy on February 02, 2015, 03:23:28 PM
Got 2 predictions:

1) ARM will completely take over on servers.
2) Personal cluster hosting is happening.

Network SSD drives, hardware and power costs and last but not least development costs; it all comes together!

Time to buy a good switch.

I still have the first version but never used it yet. IF the second version is much much better, I will porbably just buy the second one.

It's much, much faster and double the ram. It's very cheap as well surprisingly. I thought it would be much more given the specs. I bought a B+ a few months ago so a bit annoyed  >:( but I might buy this one as well seeing as it's so cheap.

Bought an A+ only a month ago, also a bit annoyed but apparently the RPi2 A+ will take another year... or so they claim. But the B+ makes no sense at all... 6 months lifetime?!

Yes, atleast now we can host a bitcoind on the RPI! ;)
