It also has a keyboard as well as a TV output and can be used for gaming and movie watching. The ARMv7 processor of the Raspberry Pi 2 can run a variety of ARM GNU/Linux distributions. Snappy Ubuntu Core is one example. Raspberry Pi 2 runs ARM GNU/Linux and Microsoft Windows 10.

The Raspberry Pi 3 Model A+ model is the newest member of the Pi 3 product range. This model has a 1.4 GHz switched 64-bit quad-core processor, dual band 2.4 and 5 GHz WLAN, and Bluetooth 4.2/BLE. It is ideal if you need to connect to WLAN and have more power than the Pi Zero W.
Raspberry Pi B+
The Raspberry Pi B+, an updated version of the original Raspberry Pi, has a few differences. The Bluetooth connectivity on the B has been upgraded to version 4.2. This new version, however, offers dual band Wi-Fi. Although it's faster, the ethernet port connects to the board with a USB 2.0 Bridge. You can attach a WiFi dongle using this port.
Raspberry Pi Model C
The Raspberry Pi Model C offers a range of new features that are not compatible with previous versions. You will find many Easter eggs, such as a display with high resolution. The board is small. A Model C can be purchased for as low as $25 if the tracks and connectors are removed that connect to GPIO header. However, this will increase the board's overall weight.

How to get your star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame
The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce in 1960 established the Hollywood Walk of Fame. The HWOF can be found at 6233 Hollywood Boulevard, Los Angeles, California. It consists of 2,711 stars embedded into the sidewalk along Hollywood Boulevard. Each star represents someone who contributed to motion pictures, television, radio, theater, music, or some aspect of popular culture. The HWOF currently has 1,922 listed living people.
You will need to submit your application to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce in order to be considered for membership to the HWOF. Once submitted, your name will be sent to the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs. Once approved, you receive a certificate of eligibility, which includes your name, date of birth, city of residence, occupation, and category. A bronze plaque with your personalization is also provided. This plaque is attached on a concrete base at the star.
A current HWOF member can nominate you for a star or if you have made significant contributions in movies, television or radio. A committee evaluates the nominations and decides whether to approve them. If they do, they will send a letter explaining their decision to the applicant at his/her home address. The second letter is sent to the applicant confirming acceptance of the nomination if the person accepts it. The Hollywood Chamber of commerce charges $25, and then the money is sent to the Department of Cultural Affairs of the City of Los Angles.
The department issues the Hollywood Chamber of commerce a check, payable to it. The check is sent to the Hollywood Walk of Fame Foundation. The foundation pays the applicant or organization. The artist or organization then pays the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce half the fee ($12.50). The City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs gets the rest.
Once the artist receives his/her star he/she will be eligible to be inducted into the HWOF. You must pay the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce the balance due to be included on the HWOF. The amount due depends on how many years ago you were first nominated. If you were first honoured in 1990, then you would owe $15,000. You would be responsible for $10,000 if you had been nominated previously in 1980.
