[Coco] Coco3 on a stick NOT in a box

[Al Hartman]

There is a version of the Intel PC on a stick that comes with Linux if you prefer that.

No I didn't know that. I have seen windows on a pi but just thought it was a hack. I don't use Windows much. I use Linux at work and at home. Win 7 and win 10 are only used when I just can't seem to figure out a realistic workaround with Ubuntu and even then it's only on a dual booting machine not a dedicated desktop

You know you can get Win10 IOT for the Pi right? (it's free)

I know that there are a lot more distributions I could try but I would still be handcuffed with having to run vcc with WINE unless I use a remote desktop but that defeats the purpose of running a pi in the first placeSent from my BlackBerry Passport Red Edition.
