[SGVHAK] Raspberry Pi - recommendations?

[Homan Chou]

I got the starter kit from adafruit.  It's a little bit more pricey at $104
but they pack in some goodies like a charger, micro sd usb card reader, sd
card (micro sd with adapter), cobbler (to work with the pins), breadboard,
case, TTL usb cable (supposedly can use this exclusively to work with pi
without need for external keyboard, mouse, or monitor, just use your laptop
and ssh?  I haven't tried it out yet)
