touring complete, hehe :)
Anyway, yes yes I agree with the things you (and others) have said. I failed to say what I wanted to say correctly. The short and sweet of it is, sometime ago I proposed to a friend that I'd help him do some things really cheaply ... (because the R-pi is cheap!) and we eventually couldn't because we couldn't use things like Labview and so on. I shouldn't have extended this issue to terminology, whether R-pi is a computer or not, sorry about that.
Basically the source of my complaint is being sliiightly bothered by the fact that when people call R-pi a computer, the everyday joe-shmoe takes from it that they can run x86 windows on it. They can't. They can maybe run Windows embedded on it (I think?) but certainly not proper Windows. I know and understand that R-pi is a computer by any reasonable definition, I'm just lamenting the reality of things in this one small respect.
