#32Gigabit ethernet over usb 2? Will never reach gigabit speeds...
True, but still faster than 100Mbps, which can be nice
Re: New Raspberry Pi Model B+
#33Still Ethernet via USB 2.0, which means it is not actually gigabit.
I also noticed that. It's only ~280 megabits so seems a bit dishonest to call it gigabit. I guess what they mean is "gigabit ethernet standard" i.e. 1000BASE-T.
Also how does it act once its internal receive buffer is full? Is it possible to get the sender to slow down, or does it have to start dropping frames? Will important things such as ARP broadcasts and DHCP requests just risk getting lost?

#35PXE booting is sweet. I develop an OS (Crankshaft) for the Pi, and a lot of times it just has been waiting to write a new OS to the SD card, waiting, plugging it in, realizing I forgot to do something, so I had to repeat. Each time it was 15 minutes of waiting. Pulling the card out and putting it back in, especially with the ribbon cable on the way (and a case too) has been really painful. PXE boot is going to solve…
Didn't they already have pxe support on the Model 3B? This is just a bug fixed version (and enabled by default).

#36> If you’ve been a Raspberry Pi watcher for a while now, you’ll have a bit of a feel for how we update our products. Model B... Model A... Model B+... When can we expect to see the Raspberry Pi Master and the Raspberry Pi Master Compact?

Why not just use a USB microphone?

FYI PXE booting has been possible for a while now: https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/hardware/raspberry...

When the internal receiver buffer is full, you drop the frames.
Basically any protocol out there has some way of dealing with dropped packets (including UDP's "don't care")
DHCP requests are usually repeated several times for this reason, the first one can get lost (this can and will happen even on a clean and underloaded gigabit homenetwork)
