7:09:48 PMABQTKY The new Pi 3 has approximately the power of a Pentium 3, so I suppose one could run games on one of those. Like maybe Solitaire?
7:09:57 PMrevdjenk ABQTKY: hee hee
7:10:15 PMagamotto The Bard's Tale?
7:12:26 PMrevdjenk What is the power use of the Pi 3? Would it be a good as server? I have never run a home network, but this seems like a possible start for me.
7:12:26 PMorangeman has program sarted yet as not getin streem
7:13:02 PMagamotto orangeman: There won't be a show tonight... .net problems in Ontario
7:13:42 PMrevdjenk time for a new show alert JeffWeston
7:13:42 PMABQTKY The four USB ports AND the Ethernet port all share a single controller, so it could make a great server, but not a FAST server.
7:14:00 PMrevdjenk ABQTKY: they don't necessarily have to be fast...right?
7:14:09 PMorangeman ok tanks I tought problem at my end

8:29:59 PMABQTKY A true Canadian would have put a comma right before 'eh.' But I won't pester about something like that. Nope, not me.
8:30:07 PMRobbieF1 :)
8:34:41 PMABQTKY We Cat5 fans are very well trained. We sit here even staring at a blank screen even after we know the internet service is down across Ontario. BTW, the DirecTV satellite tv service down here had a nationwide outage for a few hours. It's either sunspots or backhoe drivers who are respionsible for this stuff!
8:41:11 PMRobbieF1 aww
