    Lol, great post... You could probably have thousands of Pi's and still couldn't get any coins :( I wonder how many you'd need (if it was even possible to mine with these)?

    Does anyone know how much better this will be at emulation? I want to say the original re-release could only work up to Genesis/Snes level, but not 3d games using extra chip on cartridge (like Star Fox etc.).

    Also, I like emulator idea, vpn for access to your network at home (when away), or even a nifty picture frame using old laptop monitor guts (you can actually make a very nice one and even put it in real frame).

    Very nice of Microsoft to give a free copy to Pi platforms.

    The only two I know are element14 and Micro Center. Seems like Microcenter is out of them in the Houston area though.
