The OS is Raspbian, a debian wheezy linux distribution for arm processors, with hardware floating point support.
It is such a low power device, it can be on at all time, and consumes less power than my workstation when powered off (which draws 4 watts due to power supply minimum draw to support LAN wakeup). Great for a test webserver, or a monitor (for an alarm system, for motion activated cameras and the like), for kiosks, information displays, for streaming audio and / or video and the list goes on. And it is stable:
pi@raspberrypi ~ $ uptime
12:33:22 up 18 days, 22:45, 1 user, load average: 0.00, 0.01, 0.05
In an hour and 15 minutes it will have been up 19 days. Not bad considering I installed the OS 19 days ago, and the Pis are still hard to come by...
