u tellin me i can program on a ARM processer family
>>51768706
why wouldn't you be able to?
>>51768706
yeah, the Raspberry Pi is viable. I would advise the Pi B 2 as it feels much smoother than previous versions.

C# compiler is OS now, right?
You need at the bare MINIMUM an i7 if are truly serious about programming.

Are you shitting me? Since when? I'm surprised MicroShill would do that

I got bored and coded some on my thinkpad 755CD with a Pentium 75.
Seriously programming in and of itself takes NO processing power whatsoever. You can do it in a text editor if you really wanted to.
Or... If you run a bloated IDE it could be semi resource-intensive.
Something from a rasp PI to like an i3 would suffice for the new programmer.

You can literally do it with a Raspberry Pi and a VT220 if you wanted
