I found this forum after being banned from the pi forum for apparently writing aggressive and insulting emails (!!)..

Aww... are they still doing that?  That is so 2012

Personally, I think the Hardkernel ODROID-C1 is going to give RasPi some serious competition.  1.5GHz quad-core ARM Cortex-A5, 1 GB DRAM, Gigibit Ethernet, and mostly-compatible 40-pin GPIO connector -- all for the same US$35.  mconners has a great 'blog about the C1 here: http://www.element14.com/community/community/designcenter/single-board-computers/blog/2014/12/23/odroid--oh-boy

Yeah you simply not hip and with it unless you have been banned at least twice Anthony, get another login and repeat come back with more war stories .

Your Face book article  is a good one BTW...Cheers

And if you think we are joking about been banned I can assure you there are many well respected members here who have been too

Good Luck

Yes my Odroid C is simply so much faster it's silly the product makes the Pi a bit pointless really

Hi John -- I'm planning to get a C1 to celebrate my next XXICC release.  I'm going to try using it as my main work-horse computer, with a hard drive attached to USB 2.0.  However, I'd really like to use my 1440 x 900 monitor, which is not currently supported.  However, it may be supported next week along with 1366 x 768 so I can also use an Atrix Lapdock

John Alexader: Yep, I really am banned.  The Odroid C looks great btw.

If Gideros does get a Pi 'port then that same port should run on the Odroid, but obviously much faster.   As the Odroid also has Android it should also be targetable now (just the IDE won't be available).

I was writing a Basic for the pi in arm asm - but the whole experience has left a very bitter taste in my mouth so I'm not going to put any effort into that anymore...

btw. I have no idea why Liz Upton is in charge of both the Twitter feed and the website blog.  There is something wrong there...

nice one John,  some of the HDMI resolutions are not supported as of yet Hardkernel normally  sort that out a month or two after initial release

Do it for the ODROID  they will appreciate it

Might do, I have a few dollars in my Paypal account...

I made a new username up and wrote on my original thread asking why I was banned.
I got this reply by email:

"You are receiving this notification because the report you filed on the post "Re: Full for Free!!!" in "Full for Free!!!" at "Raspberry Pi" was handled by a moderator or by an administrator. The report was afterwards closed. If you have further questions contact mahjongg with a personal message."

So I tried to pm 'mahjongg' (as it says) only to find that you can't pm until you have posted.   Sick of the whole thing. 

Am I the first one here to get a ban on twitter too?
