New "Getting Started with BeagleBone" book

Matt Richardson's new book has been released in electronics format and the paper book should be ready within a week I believe:

Getting Started with BeagleBone: Linux-Powered Electronic Projects With Python and JavaScript

Many people think of Linux as a computer operating system, running on users' desktops and powering servers. But Linux can also be found inside many consumer electronics devices. Whether they're the brains of a cell phone, cable box, or exercise bike, embedded Linux systems blur the distinction between computer and device.

Amazon:

I read the draft and would recommend, especially for those looking to get started.  Matt does a great job of clearly breaking down the different ways to use the BeagleBone.

 

Cheers,

Drew

    Thanks!! Very kind!

    From the chapter list I saw it covers Python, JS+Bonescript and Linux familiarity including the desktop environment amongst other things. Having a backlog of material to read currently : ( I'm looking forward to Drew's verdict on it, particularly the high-level getting started bits like installing a new image, SSH'ing in, etc.
