[Review] Raspberry Pi

The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer that plugs into your TV and a keyboard. It’s a capable little PC which can be used for many of the things that your desktop PC does, like spreadsheets, word-processing and games. It also plays high-definition video.

The Raspberry Pi has a broadcom ship which include a 700 MHz processor(can be overclocked up to 1GHz) ,VideoCore IV GPU ,512 MB of RAM, HDMI port for connecting a digital TV or monitor , RCA port for an analogue TV or display , an audio jack , 2 USB ports and an Ethernet port to connect to a wired network.it does not include a built-in hard disk but it uses an SD card.
But the hardware alone is only one side of the story you still need to run an operating system ,the raspberry pi supports Fedora, Debian and Archlinux  and also the Raspbian which is a Debian based OS optimized for the Raspberry Pi hardware
The Raspberry Pi model A costs 25$ and the model B costs $35.
