Chris, On behalf of myself and quite a few of the folks from my raspberry-vi community, thanks very much for your work on Talking Arch and for sharing it with us. I knew nothing of Arch Linux before I bought a Pi, and after coming to like Arch very much it was great to find your talking version for the desktop. I now use Talking Arch on both platforms and the desktop version is a great environment for cross-compiling for ARM. Long live Talking Arch.
