<div style="text-align: justify;">
So, you have the hardware, but keep staring at it is not as interesting as it sounds, so, what do you need to play with the Pi now that you have the devices plugged in? Answer: an operative system. Without an operative system (OS for shorter), your PC, laptop, cellphone, TV, etc. would be as interesting as a gray stone (unless you are a geologist). You may know it as "Windows" plus a number (or if you are old enough, some letters) after it, but in the open source world the OS's name we will hear is "Linux" with all their flavors (distros). At the beginning, the Raspberry had the Debian 6 with LXDE as Graphical User Interface (GUI), but from 2011 at present, new distros have been developed, each one with their own instructions to install and setup (as well as with their advantages and disadvantages). One thing that you may have noticed about the Raspberry is that it does not have a hard disk, and there is no need for it to have one, because the Raspberry uses an SD card to contain the OS and all the files you will download or develop in the future.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
For newbies (or lazy people like me), someone came up with the idea to gather up the most popular OS's for the Pi, so we have the NOOBS (New Out Of Box Software) SD card. It is included in some "starter kits", or you can buy it as an extra.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
If you change your mind about the OS installed (or if you want to try them all one-by-one as I did), you can hold the SHIFT key until the "fancy menu" is displayed, you have to remember this because there is a probability that I will forget to mention it in the future.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
In the following entries I will detail the OS's included in this card, and if the future is venturous, another OS's that are not included in there.</div>

As the guys that developed it describe it: "<i>The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer that plugs into your TV and a keyboard. It’s a capable little PC which can be used for many of the things that your desktop PC does, like spreadsheets, word-processing and games. It also plays high-definition video. We want to see it being used by kids all over the world to learn programming.</i>" [The Raspberry guys]</div>

Of course there are some "combos" that include the power supply and the NOOBS SD card (this one will be documented later on this blog). As I mentioned in the "Introduction", Raspberry Pi Foundation is a registered charity, so if you have the money, purchase it full loaded as they have "starter kits" (the charity does not apply to me, so basically I am making free advertisement for them, I am that cool!).<br />

So, what else do we need to be able to use the thing? Answer: anything you can plug-in to a PC via USB, and then cross your fingers for a driver availability for it (or develop it by yourself), lucky us there are a lot of devices with drivers for Linux (oh, did I mention that the weapon-of-choice operative system for the Pi is Linux?).

<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-size: small;">Greetings everyone! My name is Gonzalo Orellana, from <a href="https://www.google.com/maps?t=m&ll=14.6262201,-90.5015945&z=12&q=Guatemala+City&output=classic&dg=ntvo" target="_blank">Guatemala City</a>; at present I am studying IT Engineering at Metropolia AMK and as part of the course "Orientation Project" I am having the precious opportunity to have my hands on a cool piece of technology as the Raspberry Pi® is. In the following days (or weeks or months, depending on my free time and the amount of money that I can spend, as for this moment is basically 0, so if you personally know Bill Gates, Mark Zuckerberg or the dudes of Google, you can mention them about me and maybe I can have some funds to have some fun!) I will document everything that I do with this "<i>tiny and cheap computer for kids</i>" (</span><span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><a href="http://www.raspberrypi.org/about" style="font-style: italic;">http://www.raspberrypi.org/about</a>).</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">I will try to be as clear as possible, but if there is any doubts or clarification needed you can always ask for it in the comments area and I will do my best to answer you (or to "google it" and point you in the right direction).</span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: small;">So, let's the game begin!</span></span></div>
