I've just started dabbling with a Raspberry Pi.  I've got a potential 
project that is going to use about 60 of them.  It will be programmed in 
Java and I've played with SE 1.8 a little bit on it.  I'm impressed with 
how well it seems to work.  We've tested some existing software on the 
Pi and it functions fine.

I've done a little programming with Pi4J and a PiGlow and that works 
fine too.  I haven't done in GPIO with it yet but I'm assuming it will 
be fine too.
