Excellent news, although other  forums are quoting Linux as being the front 
runner.

I suppose negotiations with are on-going.

Will the OS and BASIC be on board do you know, Matthew, or will there just 
be a hardware call to an input device such as a disk drive?

I wonder if the Pi will get Richards Wildey and Fairhurst programming again.

Routeplanner 2012, anyone?
