Another thing that LLC layer is responsible for is flow control. Let’s take a look at the flow control this way.I am a not-so-rich person so I cannot afford a laptop and I am still working on old Windows PC with 256 Mb RAM. On the other hand, my girlfriend can afford a brand new laptop that was just launched in the market.So when we video chat, because of the HD quality camera from her laptop, the video size I receive outsizes my video sent to her from my poor camera. Does that mean that we should run out of sync? No, that does not happen, right?And that’s where exactly flow control comes into the picture. LLC layer makes sure that one fast computer does not overrun a slower one. For that purpose, the concept of ‘Ack’ acknowledgment has come into the picture. For every frame received or sent, I must send/receive an ack respectively to be in sync.

LLC layer uses CRC (Cyclic Redundancy Check) to check frame errors at data link layer. This is more like providing a preview of a bigger picture to your friend that where he/ she is going wrong.While OEMs like Apple and Samsung are busy making their notebooks thinner, you can go one step ahead and create a Linux computer packaged into the size of a Nintendo DS.This amazing tutorial was originally shared by Chris Robinson from NODE who basically built a miniature laptop with the help of Raspberry Pi 2, QWERTY keyboard, color LCD display, and a battery.The computer also features USB ports and Ethernet. Here are the complete features of the pocket-sized DIY Linux computer:Before jumping upon the DIY, note that you need to make some modifications like stripping the Raspberry Pi to reduce its thickness and using a soldering iron to remove different headers.You can also output the video to an external monitor to give it a feel of a desktop computer. This fully functional Linux computer can run ARM-friendly apps, you can use it to browse the web and play a couple of games.
