@achum2sum It is bases on and ARM architecture. There are 2 main architectures, x86 for most PCs and Laptops. ARM is used for mobile phones and tablets. The new windows 8 will support both but it wont be able to run on a pi as there isnt enough ram or processor power.

Wikipedia lists the OS that are compatible with this, I didnt see Windows any version as compatible. Why? Any beginners guides published for this so us novices can act as if we are smart like Eben?
-
would it be possible to install DOS on it?

It will eventually get support for most things. Every nerd/geek/genesis in College/high school/basement will be pissing about with programming for these.

THIS IS EXCITING NEWS! Sorry about the drool - I'll clean up after myself but yeah I like this concept! It takes me back to the 80's with the Sinclair computers except this one is WAY More robust and contemporary. I am subscribing so I can keep up with this. APPLAUSE!
Hopefully it will support Ubuntu based Linux OS types as well?
-
when will they be available?

The datasheet for the CPU BCM2835 IC chip is NOT available to the public!
please make it as small as possible -- that was one of the most appealing features of the original prototype!
