| No problem, by the time anyone actually get the Raspberry Pi's they ordered, software will have evaluated to the intelligence of a Cray MCLXXIV and the mother of E.T. combined and squish these bugs on sight. |

The quick black AVR jumped over the lazy PIC.

I dont know why avr( its logo) is considered as bugs.
And Raspberry Pi is obviously delicious. |

Because it's a "debugger"? (the logo is for the AVR/Atmel Studio program not AVR in general)
The term "bug" for a flaw in software operation is said to date from a moth trapped in a relay of an early computer:

I guess moths and ladybirds are distantly related. |

Totally OT:

Generally speaking, yes. They are both animals.
But don't jump to conclusions about the closeness of the relation. E.g. I just learned the other day (from a britich sciense program on Swedish public service TV) that hippos are more closely related to whales than they are to crocodiles. |

And I am more closely related to my Aunt Tonda Carlberg than I am to Johan! 
(I think only Johan will get that joke) |

Mmmmm. Etymology and entomology working together in perfect harmony! |
