[SGVHAK] Raspberry Pi - recommendations?

[Matthew Campbell]

Good afternoon Bryan,

I still have one Pi left from the group buy.

I found the best power for this rev of the board is a USB3 hub.  In
addition to the extra ports the hub provides three amps for an external USB
Camera, SSD drive and wireless dongle.
