Materials List
- A modern Raspberry Pi.
- A power supply for the Pi.
- A case for the Pi, preferably with a fan included.
- A Micro SD Card, preferably one with a Class 10 / 10MB/s write speed or better.
- A recent querty remote, such as the Rii i8+.
You'll also need an HDMI compliant television, an HDMI cable, and an active ethernet cable (I've read its possible to achieve a working wifi connection but I have not figured this out yet.)
All set? Perfect. Start by assembling the Pi case and mounting the Pi into it. The case fan power connects to the pins on the board as follows:
