Its starting to gather dust, literally and figuratively, but I still want to preserve the unit for use. Its needs its own case, and so Maplins seems the ideal place to pick one up. Unfortunately, Maplins are not allowed to sell the Raspberry Pi, but they do have all the peripherals, including cases. But as is typical with such a backward company they only sell the case for the Model A and B, not the new improved B+. And speaking with a shop assistant they dont intend to order any more cases for any of the models until this stock has sold out. From what I see it looks like they will be holding onto this stock for years, as anyone who wants a Pi now will get the B+ model, and anyone who already has a Pi already has bought a case.
Amazon, sadly, it is.

RetroPi
Just placed my order with Amazon for the all components I need to build a RetroPi computer/console.
Ive the guide ready to go from Lifehacker and will get it up and running as soon as possible.
1 Raspberry Pi
1 Powerlead (The Pi doesnt come with one, but is a USB powered source
1 Nintendo 64 USB Controller
1 2no SNES Controller
All I need is a SD Card, but I can buy one of these from a shop without going via Amazon.
