Does anybody have one? What have you done with it? What accessories do you have? What programming languages have you used?

I got one, but then I ran out of ideas. I made a small little torrent downloader machine which you can put in an USB stick with .torrent files and then it'll download them and them on the USB again. It was intended to be used on high speed networks, but it was pretty meh. I also made a little box that phones home when you plug it in a network and will then provide access to that network, it looks pretty inconspicious and I figure it'll be useful if I ever need to do some real life pentesting or something.

Sadly, only the board arrived. Tomorrow I should actually have a power supply and memory card.

I have five SD cards; two are Arch Linux ARM and three are Raspbian. I’m only intending to use the Pis as remote, command line devices.

I’m still in the process of configuring each of the rpi instances. I’ve done the following…

• change root password
• switch to en_US locales
• switch to en_US keyboard layout
• start SSH daemon at boot
• include hardware random number generator kernel module at boot
• configure SSH keys, authorizing all five devices on each other
• configure static networking for a private LAN
• build the `hello_pi` suite and run basic tests

Now I’m at these steps…

• apt-get update
• apt-get upgrade
• git config
• install Redis (apt-get install redis-server python-redis libhiredis-dev libhiredis-dbg libhiredis0.10)
• install SQLite

It's quite a fun device, I use mine as a home server that hosts my website and stores backups.
