General information regarding Raspberry Pi
The board comes in two versions which only differ in ram size (128MB vs 256MB) and ethernet. It weighs about 40g and is approx 86mm x 54mm x 20mm in size and is powered by 5V (same as USB). It uses an ARM cpu (version 6 core) and Broadcom BCM2835 Chip to handle graphics. USB and Ethernet is handled by SMSC chipset.
