In almost every computation a great variety of arrangements for the succession of the processes is possible, and various considerations must influence the selections amongst them for the purposes of a calculating engine. One essential object is to choose that arrangement which shall tend to reduce to a minimum the time necessary for completing the calculation.

The Raspberry Pi Foundation will be making a big (and very positive) announcement that just might interest you at 0600h GMT on Wednesday 29 February 2012. Come to www.raspberrypi.org www.raspberrypi.org to find out what’s going on countdown to announcement
"With tens of thousands of customers looking to order on the RS website since the launch of Raspberry Pi earlier today, this is the greatest level of demand RS has ever received for a product at one time. We clearly understand how excited customers are about this ground-breaking product and we are working closely with Raspberry Pi to satisfy this unprecedented demand."

Raspberry PI FAQS
We are near to ARM Raspberry Pi's release for our smart dogs. After we have Pi hardware, comes the first mainstream ARM Puppy ISO with testers, support, derivatives, Puppy artwork (already available), wiki and forum support etc.
We only have to support broadcom multimedia on the first build
Once Puppy is solidly on Pi, we will add drivers for other devices
