Got a Pi B+, installed OpenElec and using it as a media server.
Handles HD over the network to HDMI TV without a single glitch so far.
Very nice indeed.
Being in Canada, I actually got a kit from www.buyapi.ca including a Pi, box, Flirc, flash drive, psu and some cables. Nice way to get set up.
As others have said, depends on what you want it for.
Pi Zero takes some beating for embedded systems, although it does not have a network port so you should bear that in mind.
As a general purpose mess-about-with box, get the latest Pi B+.

I've got two Pi 2s on my network. The first runs a DNS server. The second is collecting dust at the moment. I plan to make a docker cluster out of Pies, just not gotten that far yet.
I really wish their memory could be upgraded. 1GB RAM is enough to be tempting, but not enough to go crazy with.

I've got a B+ and a couple of A boards - they were for projects that have yet to get off the ground. I also have a couple of Orange Pi boards coming in the mail from an Ebay supplier (normally, you can only get them from AliExpress). I'm also a backer for two boards of the Pine A64 kickstarter (which is fully funded, but still going - get in on it while you can).
What do I plan to do with any or all of these? Not much anytime soon. One was earmarked for a robotics project; I might use either a A64 board or one of the Orange Pi boards for an emulator station.
Beyond that - they're just extra hardware I keep around for "just in case" projects (much like the numerous Mini ITX boards and other assorted crap I also have collecting dust in my shop).

I look forward to seeing it too - I remember at the time how he was mostly the subject of ridicule. The thing is, he had the guts and actually made the jumps which I think counts for a lot.
I hope he benefits from the royalties of the film.

A bit early as its only Wednesday, but this song has been pretty much on repeat since Friday, so nothing's going to beat that
Ghost - If You Have Ghosts (Roky Erickson Cover)[^]
Awesome song, much better than the original!
Also the only song in their set list that I didn't know at their concert two weeks ago...

I worry about you .....

Because it's such a good song I might never like any other song after this?

I must admit I've never been in such a mood
It's strangely catchy though, I'm already repeating "Vergammelte Speisen dudududuuu" in my head

Being able to pull off tabs to my other monitor is really nice.
It would be even sweeter if I could separate the WPF XAML window from the designer surface, instead of a spit view.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is

Same for .ascx files as well, I would think.

I think he means one separate tab for the xaml and one for the designer. I could be mistaken, though.

He means both - one is existing for a long time, the other does not and with reason...Not good reason, but reason...

I was going to join the constructive conversation, but sadly the current email news manager ruined that mood;
WTF was the snide comment of "Not cancelling it?" required?
If it was the 1 or 2 "funny" remark fine, but it is not.
The whole email is littered with cynicism - well done codeproject, lets turn this site into the open warfare and bitchy comments.
For the moment I will join the takers.
Apologies to the OP, but had to vent my disappointment.
