Hi, Hot off the press today is the launch of the latest Raspberry Pi Model. However, this isn't another hardware refresh with a bit more RAM, a few more clock cycles and maybe some additional I/O.
Instead, this goes the other way. RAM size is back to 512 MB, CPU is back to single core and the I/O is reduced. The difference? Over £20 quid LESS than the last model! (And it's much smaller.) See https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/raspberry-pi-zero/[1] for the page announcing it. (The video runs on Vimeo and I found that I could only see it properly by running the URL in VLC.) Also, the Raspberry Pi Foundation are giving these away for free! Every copy of the December edition of the MagPi magazine will include a Pi Zero on the cover (and apparently subscribers will get the interface cable (£4) for free as well). It looks like the Raspberry Pi Foundation are going all out for world domination :-) -- Terry Coles -------- [1] https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/raspberry-pi-zero/ -- Next meeting: Bournemouth, Tuesday, 2015-12-01 20:00 Meets, Mailing list, IRC, LinkedIn, ... http://dorset.lug.org.uk/ New thread: mailto:dorset@mailman.lug.org.uk / CHECK IF YOU'RE REPLYING Reporting bugs well: http://goo.gl/4Xue / TO THE LIST OR THE AUTHOR
