Ask HN: I got Raspberry Pi. Now what can I do with it?

There's a new book by Pragmatic (I personally like many of their books), it might be helpful.

http://pragprog.com/book/msraspi/raspberry-pi "Raspberry Pi: A Quick-Start Guide gives you everything you need to get the Raspberry Pi up and running and doing cool stuff." - their website.

I'll use mine to display stats and metrics on a tv in the office, but that's pretty boring.

Probably the most cost-effective way to do so however.

I've been wondering the same thing. Best idea so far is to run a buildbot on it, but that seems like a waste of its abilities.
