@ajroach42 Oh man! Same! Sometime in the early 80's one of my xmas presents was a plastic garbage can (probably a foot tall) packed with Star Wars figures. It was awesome!

@kkarhan@infosec.space @santi@gone.lema.org @muito_pelo@contra.rio.br Well, yes. Pi is probably the most popular ARM that's not totally locked down. If I had an ARM only OS, I'd want to support the most popular hardware I could. As for why use it? RISC OS snagged me mainly because of retrocomputing in general and my special interest in operating systems. Nostalgia seems to be a big reason for others.

@kkarhan@infosec.space @santi@gone.lema.org @muito_pelo@contra.rio.br The Pi releases do seem to have extra goodies included. 😀

@kkarhan@infosec.space @santi@gone.lema.org @muito_pelo@contra.rio.br Yes! There are people who will happily sell you paid apps for RISC OS but the OS itself is free and Open Source.
