Hi, I am currently looking for the best Linux OS for my new entertainment center here is what I need

• Highly customizable
  
• Lots of apps (not fan made ones, ones that come from the devs or the company that make the program)
  
• Install movies and music to OS so you can play it. (Kind of the point of a media center right?)
  

IK that PicoCluster is mainly used for web servers and businesses but can this be utilized as just a personal computer? Basically what I am asking is that are the P64 clusters 3 different computers that do not share the same power or can you just run one OS and just get more processing power out of it, also if you can use it as a PC, can you run an OS on it and how hard would it be?

IK that is a lot to think about and I am sorry.

P.S. How expensive would the cluster cost?

I'm wondering if the pine64 can enhance my laptop to use autodesk inventor in storage and performance. Also could I double the storage and performance by simply getting 2?

Hello everyone,

My current favorite OS for the rpi2 is RECALBOX. It is easy to use and its the best one ive seen to run n64 on using the rpi2. My guess is that with the 64bit and 2gb version (which i kickstarted) it would run perfect. 

Anyone know if it will be difficult to make recalbox work on the pine a64+ 2 gb? If not I do not mind retropie or Lakka.

On the kickstarter campaign page there is a video of someone "Testing Fruit Ninja with an optional Air Mouse!"
From the video itself, it seems that is a very responsive 3D Air mouse.  I would like to purchase that exact unit and give it a try.
What is the brand and model number of that specific Air Mouse?

have you planned motor shield for3D print or other?

I plan on building a Lego NES case when I finally get mine. Will probably need to run to the lego store at some point to get the pieces I need, but would anyone happen to know the parts list to make something like this?

It is said on the wiki that the plus model can drive an LCD through LVDS up to 1366x768. My question is how would the pine64 react to the inverter needed with older LCD displays from laptops. Also, would it be able to drive an LED LCD screen through this display port?

Hi all,

Very cool to see the new modules being talked about and shown.

I saw the latest Kickstarter update and was wondering what the role of the "12C POT board" was? What is this and what would it be used for? Or is this one of those "if you have to ask then it isn't for you"-type scenarios? 

Hi all,

I've been imagining all the areas I might be able to put a PINE64 to good use around the home, and so far I'm predicting I'm going to need at least half a dozen of them! Sounds like a few fun weekends ahead...

Does anyone know if there is the ability/opportunity to use a PINE64 to run a small NAS operating system (and connect it up to a few USB hard drives)? Or is this not a good use-case, perhaps because a SATA connection is needed?

The other idea I had was to run Plex Server on a PINE64 as a back-end (and of course use another PINE64 for a front-end) - does anyone know if that would be possible? Or would it suffer from the same lack of SATA speed for media retrieval? I was hoping it might be fine for 1-2 simultaneous streams?
