Wednesday, January 23, 2013
10AM PT, San Francisco
6pm – London | 1pm – New York | Thu, Jan 24th at 5am – Sydney | Thu, Jan 24th at 3am – Tokyo | Thu, Jan 24th at 2am – Beijing | 11:30pm – Mumbai

The credit-card-sized Raspberry Pi was developed to lower the barriers to teaching young people programming, and it is also popular with hardware hackers and hobbyists who may have a project that needs more computing power than a microcontroller.

Join us for a hands-on webcast presented by Matt Richardson and Shawn Wallace, authors of Getting Started with Raspberry Pi. Matt and Shawn will show you what you need to get up and running, walk you through installing the operating system to give you an understanding of all the hardware features of the Pi, and set up the small computer with the correct power source and peripherals.

This webcast will cover:

  • Tour of the Boards
  • The Proper Peripherals
  • Do I need a Case?
  • OS
  • Booting Up
  • Configuring Your PI
