This is a project suggested by Bebo White to build a PingER monitoring host based on an inexpensive hardware called Raspberry Pi (see more about Raspberry Pi) using a linux distribution as OS (see more about Raspbian). If successful one could consider using these in production reducing the costs, power drain (they draw about 2W of 5V DC power compared to typically over 100W for a deskside computer or 20W for a laptop) and space (credit card size) assisting monitoring sites to be able to procure and support such monitoring hosts. This could be very valuable for sites in developing countries where cost, power utilization and to a lesser extent space may be crucial.<b>TEST</b>
