Re: Uses of Raspberry Pi
I'm not sure if you mean FRC specific uses or uses in general, but I know I have a minecraft server running on mine. I have seen them used for cloud storage, and I know of several instances where people have connected multiple raspberry pi's together in a Beowulf Cluster to make a supercomputer.

Raspberry Pi's can essentially be used for most tasks a regular computer can, although they lack processing speed and memory compared to a modern desktop.
