« on: June 17, 2015 »
I dont have desktop pc anymore. I using Raspberry pi 2 and it is alright but internet is slow due enthernet cable.

I cant wait for what WIndows 10 gonna be like on Razzy(Raspberry pi 2) :D

Code block? It run so quick when compile in C++ :)
BlitzMax? It run so slow when compile and I wont be using it.
Python? Nah...not keen on that!

I imagine it will be quite slow, due to the high demands Windows operating systems tend to have on processors.

Since the RP2 has a modest ARM processor, there would need to be a very stripped-down version of Windows to get any kind of satisfactory performance out of it.

Yes that correct as it will be called Mobile window 10 for Razzy pi 2 :)

I going to shop round look for mid range laptop instead of high range laptop!

When I got my rpi2 I first used the raspbian that came with it and was disappointed with the bloat it came with.
But after I installed Arch it worked great (except video was still extremly slow.. ).
Unfortunately I haven't had the time to really dive into it like I first wanted but I learned a lot about linux thanks to it
and I went even full penguin now.
Win 10 IoT sounds interesting but having a closed OS on the rpi kinda goes against what it is about.
Probably will try it out but can't imagine sticking with it.

So even though I didn't do what I had intended with it, it definitely paid of for me and still so much to explore :)
