minus-squarehelenslunch@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down1·11 months agoMSRP is $80 I believe
minus-squareWallEx@feddit.delinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·11 months agoThat sounds okay with taxes and stuff
minus-squarehelenslunch@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down2·11 months agoIt’s “okay” but you can do much better for the price.
minus-squarePopOfAfrica@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·11 months agoI bought an old thinkcentre for $50 on ebay that trounces the Pi’s performance. Reduce, REUSE, recycle.
minus-squarehelenslunch@feddit.nllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2arrow-down1·11 months agoI agree that’s a better device but I don’t think it’s fair to compare new to used. You could probably buy a used Pi4 for $20, and if that is sufficient for your needs, would be a much better deal.
minus-squarePopOfAfrica@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·11 months agoI suppose looking at it from a gaming/emulation perspective. While the Pi4 was fantastic, there are definitely out there foe that usecase
minus-squareAux@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1arrow-down1·11 months agoCan you attach any RPi HATS to it? No? Not an alternative then.
