A new Arduino Q&A site

There is a site proposal for a new Arduino Q&A site similar to Stack Overflow under the Stack Exchange network. It is something that can work alongside this forum to solve problems with Arduino's. It in no way replaces a forum, but instead creates a new platform for objective oriented questions and answers. If you are interested, you can follow and support the proposal. The more the merrier

What do you mean by object oriented, Raj?

Please answer the question about ArkDuino.

object*ive* oriented. You have a well-framed question -> you get an answer. No unneccesary noise.

I happen to like how things are going right here at e14 and would not be interested in any other forum unless Google pointed to it as having content relevant to my well-framed search string. Thanks anyway for the invite.

No, I certainly do not deny anything.

1)Any community contains members of varying expertise levels. Everybody started at some point. Even the experts were noobs at a point of time.

2)As many members of the site may not be native english speakers, there obviously will be varying levels of clarity of posts.

We are looking at replace 8-10 old XP machines. We purchased a Raspberry Pi to try but it doesn't stream video very well at all. I was recommended by a friend that the Arduino would work better for us. We will basically be using them online using Google Docs, YouTube and other educational sites. To best utalize the equipment we have, a VGA connection would be really nice. Do you know of a single board computer solution that is reasonably priced that would work for us?

@Richard, I don't think an Arduino (Uno or Mega) would work well for those purposes. You might try a Beaglebone Black maybe? Maybe try those forums to see what the experts know about it.

Otherwise there are some boxes like Apple TV, WDTV Live, and Roku for around $100 that let you also browse the web. You might need hdmi-vga converters to use your old monitors though.

Hope that helps!

Cheers,
