The Raspberry Pi is a single-board computer developed in the UK by the Raspberry Pi Foundation.
The design is based around a Broadcom BCM2835 SoC, which includes an ARM1176JZF-S 700 MHz processor, VideoCore IV GPU, and 256 MB of RAM. The design does not include internal storage, instead relying on an SD card for booting and long-term storage.
XBMC for Raspberry Pi
Team-XBMC developers are working on porting XBMC to the Raspberry Pi using beta boards supplied by the RPi Foundation.
