[LUNA] Oddball question ....

[Michael W. Hall]

Gigaparts has the RPi B+.  They were $35 I believe.  They also have a
lot of the optional items for them also, webcams and the various other
boards.  They also sell the cases.

If you are interested I ordered a starter kit off amazon.com for $62.
You got the pi, case, wireless usb dongle, and power plug.
