I'm into microcontroller dev boards and have even designed a few of my own.

I have an Arduino in the closet and just bought a Pi.

Trying to get into the electronics/microcontroller thing.
I'm pretty thrilled that XBMC was ported over for this platform.

I've played with the arduino a little. Haven't bought a pi yet, but I did go linux not too long ago, so maybe that'll change.

I have a 256MB Raspberry Pi and a 512MB Raspberry Pi, I haven't had chance to fully explore what can be done with them, one (the 512MB one) sits on a desk in my living room running RISC OS (which I recommend people try at least once), the 256MB one that I own has the Raspbian Linux distro for the Pi running on it, and I have tried connecting an LCD up to the GPIO pins but have yet to get that to work properly, but have not found the time to finish it off.

I have yet to use the Arduino though I may look into that at some point in the future.

I have a raspberry (B type) and I'm going to try use the GPIO pins to control a servo ( found some resources in the web saying it's possible).
I also have a model car without a steer (servo was not included in the kit :( ) so if I manage to get it running I'll have an raspberry controlled car :)

I was trying to get an rgb LED to change colors based on ping sensor readings, the response was choppy and the map() function didn't get me the results I was looking for. There is a lot about programming I don't know.

I'm going to try it again once I can get the arduino working on ubuntu12.10

I've done quite a few projects with Arduino and lately I'm interested in PIC Microcontrollers.

Few videos with my experiments, if you can find something useful: Arduino projects
