Hi,


Just thought it worth mentioning this:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-31834927

>From the article:

The BBC will be giving away mini-computers to 11-year-olds across the
country as part of its push to make the UK more digital.

One million Micro Bits - a stripped-down computer similar to a Raspberry Pi
- will be given to all pupils starting secondary school in the autumn term.

The BBC is also launching a season of coding-based programmes and
activities.
Just thought it worth mentioning that while that pictures the prototype, it
uses an awful lot of python in the software stack.

:-)

Michael.
