(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); My college will be providing me with a free Rasberry Pi soon. I know that it can be used to program stuff such as robots or what not. But what else can I use it for? Would I be able to install other Linux based OS's on top of it such as You must login or register to view this content. ? and if anybody has one are they good to use, or only meant to be used for educational purposes? Because I can literally sell it if I cannot find any other use for it.

Raspberry Pis are worth nearly $30 so its nothing really worth selling... my phone is more expensive and has a much faster processor.

Yeah I read on the tails os website. Also doesn't it come with its own memory card?
