Chapter 6 ■ Building low-Cost MysQl data nodesto use the raspberry pi laptop, start by connecting the hdMi cable, then any peripherals (like a hard
drive), and then the usB cable; open the lid of the lapdock. within a few seconds, your new laptop is
ready to go! the next figure shows the ports on the rear of the lapdock under the folding door, and the
one after that shows the laptop in action.
not only can you use this solution for your raspberry pi, but also several other boards work equally well.
i have successfully used the lapdock to power other boards. indeed, the lapdock makes an excellent
pcduino laptop! even if your board doesn’t support the keyboard or mouse, the hdMi screen is handy.
