[Hardware-pm] Fwd: Re: pi

[Zachary Zebrowski]

Hi Martin,

++ Very cool, good articles.  I didn't realize the cpan shell issue,
but very cool and thanks for the info.  (I also got boa ( a simple web
server) and a few other debian utilities to just work as well...)

I'm also thinking of doing some home environmental monitoring with the
pi as well...  (Using sqlite as my backend, via dbd-sqlite.)  Won't
start that till the weekend though...
