Sometimes when you get handed something new and interesting, you have two choices; you either put it away or you start tinkering over it. If you like tinkering over new and interesting gadgets, you will soon learn one or two things about it (even become good at something).
That is exactly what happened to me when I was first given a Raspberry Pi 2 two years ago by the head of our department.
