Fine, RaspPi it is then...
Note - without low level programming of the GPIO pins, which I don't know how to do, OE cannot access the GPIO pins by itself. You need the GPIO library and wiringPi library - in fact http://wiringpi.com/ is a very good read
I had to install wiringPi, but you may find it is already installed now - in any case instructions for testing are on the wiring pi site
Advice on how to install OE can be found here - I used Greg's library for wiringPi
Can you set it up? Once you have a working EU and a working gpio utility setup, then you are good to go with experimenting with access to the real world.
Also it makes sense to share a folder on your PC with a folder on the Pi using samba - do you know how to do this? Also set up VNC on your PI, and vnc on your pc so that that you don't need to have a monitr/keyboard/mouse attached to the PI.
Cheers
