Raspberry Pi - The game changer

When you think of a home computer, you obviously think of a big tower sitting atop your desk, or even a little notebook that sits atop your lap.  Not too many people imagine a device that fits into the palm of their hand when they think of a home computer (and I’m not referring to a smartphone).  Ladies and gentlemen, meet the Raspberry Pi.

This thing may look small, but by no means does it run small.  It outputs 1080p video through an HDMI port, and it’s more powerful than many standard netbooks available today.  You might think a device like this would cost at least the price of a netbook, right?  So… $300?  Nope.  $200??  Nope.  $100?!?  Nope.  Try $35.  Yup.  For the price of $35, you could have your very own computer.

Of course, there are some sacrifices that are made to get the price down that low.  It comes with absolutely nothing.  No case.  No peripherals.  No hard drive.   It’s literally just the little green board that’s pictured.  You don’t even get a power cord with it.  That’s the bad news… but the good news is so much more than just the price.  It uses an SD card for a hard drive (you can buy them for quite cheap, these days).  You can easily buy a 5 volt micro USB phone charger that’s compatible to use as a power supply for the Raspberry Pi.  I mean, I have four of them just sitting in my closet from previous phones that I’ve owned.  It runs a very light version of Linux, making sure it stays snappy and responsive.  It has a Broadcom ARM11 based CPU and a Broadcom VideoCore IV GPU that work in conjunction to deliver a strong performance, and is being said to be even more powerful than the Nvidia Tegra 2 combo that’s available on many (current) top-line smartphones.  Oh, and it’ll browse the web like a champ.

The best part?  It will easily fit on your entertainment center.  You now have a set-top box for far less than an Apple TV box.  Even if something happens and your Raspberry Pi breaks, it’s far cheaper to spend another $35 and get a brand new system than spend whatever insane prices that Apple would want to repair their box.  Another great thing is that you also have access to everything on the internet, not some watered down or filtered versions of things like Hulu or YouTube that you get on many set-top boxes and game consoles today.  And you don’t have to pay monthly charges for things like Hulu Plus just to have access to Hulu.  Everything you want is all right there, just like it would be on your computer.

The fact it runs Linux will immediately turn some people off, but it’s really not so bad.  It runs Linux due to the fact that it has only 256 MB of RAM available, and there are Linux distros that can easily run on 32 MB, leaving the rest of the RAM for the CPU/GPU to use.  Even many phones that run Google’s Android (which is based on Linux) run smooth as butter on 256 MB of RAM.  Anything you need as far as Linux questions, you can Google for it.  If you ever run into any problems, there’s huge online communities that are always willing to assist you.

In all honestly, this is the product that seems like a game changer.  A cheap computer for those that can’t afford to buy an expensive computer.  A cheap set-top box for people that hate Apple and don’t really do the whole Netflix thing on their DVD players/game consoles.  There’s honestly no reason that pretty much everyone shouldn’t eventually own a Raspberry Pi.

I managed to go and preorder mine on the release date (after digging around a bit I found an order form online).  It can be purchased through either Premier Farnell’s element 14 website or RS Components.  I purchased mine through the element 14 site, and am quietly waiting for the order to be filled and shipped.  It’s going to be a looong wait, as the first batch of Raspberry Pi computers are being made to order, and won’t ship until March 31st at the earliest, as they take roughly three weeks to produce.

In conclusion, I just can't wait to get my WebTV.  Wait... what?
