Hi folks,

Not sure if anyone has seen this at all... a guy called Ryan Walmsley has put together a Raspberry Pi tracker to show where the lucky folks who have managed to get one are living...

Yea and he managed to write it in such a way that everyones data can be scraped off utterly trivially. Great kid, naive coding. (see data.php)

I noticed there are a couple of folks in Devon and Cornwall who have managed to get one. I'm wondering if it might be worth contacting them, at least the ones on twitter to let them know about the LUG?

The site is here: http://rastrack.ryanteck.org.uk/index.php

I entered mine in, just picked Devon and it put me in the middle of Dartmoor, near Oakhampton :)

I've been on the Raspberry Pi forums and posted a mention of the Exeter & DCLUGs. However people are basically ignoring the LUGs and setting up their own Pi user groups. LUGs are too full of beardy weirdys apparently...

Anyone else on the list got theirs yet? Mine arrived this morning... I've had such as busy day though so I haven't had time to fire it up yet, it's still in it's box and will probably be fired up tomorrow.

I've put some initial setup hints here:

assuming you use a > 2GB SD card..
