All about Raspberry Pi 2

I know it is too late to write about Raspberry Pi 2.I was preparing an article about steeping value of Bitcoin for the last year, and it is not finished yet.Lets come back to the tittle.The Raspberry Pi 2.The embeded magic, i could say.It is a credit card sized computer costs between $25 to $35 developed by  Raspberry Pi Foundation.The first  Raspberry Pi was released in 2012 February. It runs on following operating systems LinuxRISC OSFreeBSDNetBSD,Plan 9Inferno. It comes as a SoC (System On Chip ). We can see how technology has been improved our lifestyles.It has standard USB ports and memory card slots. Detailed configuration is given below.RBP 2 is just a updated version of RBP1.There are still some problem with new RBP2 for camera flash and workload.
