Hi,
Just wondering about sonetging. WWhat is the difference between razburrian and
and Debian for the pi. Is not razburrian based on Debian? Thanks.

Hey I have a question to what you just said. I have not had to make the USB
sound device default. I have plugged in three different USB headsets and they
just work on the 400. Is there a reason to make it the default?

Hello Vojta,
First of all thanks for your thanks. And welcome to the list if you have just
recently joined.
The Raspberry Pi 400 is sadly the first model of the Pi to not include a 3.5mm
audio jack. But it quite easy to use a USB audio dongle and to configure it to
make it the default sound device. I will be posting instructions on how to do
this to the Web site.
You could indeed send and receive email with it. What with depends on the
operating system, and whether you have a graphical desktop installed.
If you run console only, then a console only email client such as mutt could be
used.
But if you have a graphical desktop, then one of the accessible email clients,
such as Thunderbird would work well.
I do very little with the Raspberry Pi boards I have, other than test and write
stuff for this list and the site, and I also do some software development for
some customers who are using the Pi for industrial applications. But that is
another story.
The Raspberry Pi 400 has 4GB of RAM, so it will perform better for us in a
graphical desktop than the 1GB versions which came before.

Hello,
And how have you sound? You have headphones or some speakers? It would
be great for me when I will perhaps travel. And can you send emails
wya it? And with what?
Thanks.
Best regards

Hello folks===========================================================
My Pi 400 just arrived. These are my immediate first impressions.
Quite impressed by the rigidity of the whole assembly. Holding on to
each end, cannot detect any movement when I gently try to twist it. I
have no doubt a very strong person could though. But that would be
true of almost any standard PC keyboard. I would avoid sitting on it
if I was to, for example, lay it on my bed for some reason.
Was a bit nervous about the quality and feel of the membrane
keyboard, but it feels nice. Every bit as nice as the Caseflex
Bluetooth keyboard I have.
I saw one review that says there is no cover over the GPIO bus, but
mine has a rubber cover which is a push fit. When it is removed it is
a separate piece. So I will stick some sellotape (Scotch tape) over
it to prevent me losing it. Don't see myself using the GPIO on this Pi.
The arrangement of the keys will take some getting used to if I want
to do a lot with it, other than over SSH. The description Tim Chase
gave me and which I am going to put on the Web site will help me
there. I hope it will help others too.
I have not stoked it up yet. That comes later.
For an additional £5, I got a nice sleeve for it, which feels as if
it would give pretty good protection when the Pi is slung into a ruck
sack and carted about, for example.
Thanks to thepihut.co.uk for a fast delivery and a very competitive price.
I went for just the Pi, no additional 'starter kit' bits.
