Meat and potato edition?
Cheers for all responses, even those of a less relevant nature. I'm thinking of getting the Pi 3. I am open to be educated on more general uses of the device - i'm very much a newbie where all of this is concerned!

I'm not sure what you're expecting from it? Yes it can be used to run tons of gimmicky "projects" but unless you're into coding/hacking/programming, it's just a cheap small computer. Why are you interested in one?Meat and potato edition?
