It’s a strange beast, i feel like I’d like it as alow powered desktop substitute as it’s too powerful/draws roouch power to be used in place of a microcontroller. But it’s not got enough ram to act as a useful desktop either. Probably just my own usecase, but 16GB would be perfect
Oh, hell yeah. Preordered.
Where were you able to pre order from? I can’t find anywhere.
Just went down their posted reseller list by location: https://www.raspberrypi.com/resellers/
In the U.S., Sparkfun was already taking preorders. The others will probably get their own page up soon.
every site i checked lists this at $65+ for the base model… is this even a Raspberry Pi at that point? 2x the performance for 2x the price isn’t actually much of a deal, and they stuck to the $35 MSRP so doggedly before (even if resellers tended to jack it up). their competitors must be breathing a sigh of relief.
At 12W under load, it’s getting close to X86 processors in energy consumption.
i wish they’d make a verson with more ram!
8gb isn’t enough? What are you computing on it?
