Anyone know of anywhere local that sells these apart from Maplins (which seems a little pricey)? Was looking at using it as low power media centre/file server/retro gaming emulation/etc. Move a clunky PC out of the way  Anyone got one/used one? Thoughts/opinions?

Speak to Gibbo on here he has at least one and might be looking to flog it, or could get one cheap.

If you can afford the extra, go for a Tegra. We've got one here at work and it pees all over the Pi performance wise.

tegra are more than £30... the idea of the pi is to be lowe powered and not cost the earth
