Raspberry Pi: 10 Million Served
In honor of the sale of 10 million Raspberry Pis, the company is offering a new starter kit.
Megan Morrone and Jason Howell discuss the 10 millionth sale of a Raspberry Pi. PC World reports that Eben Upton, the man behind the cheap computer never had commercial success in mind. In honor of that the company is offering a new starter kit which includes a Raspberry Pi 3 Model B, an 8GB NOOBS SD card, an official case, an official 2.5A multi-region power supply, an official 1m HDMI cable, an optical mouse and a keyboard with high-quality scissor-switch action and a copy of the book, Adventures in Raspberry Pi Foundation Edition. It's available in the UK right now for 99£, which is about $140. It will be available to the rest of the world in the coming weeks. Every time you buy a Raspberry Pi you fund their ongoing engineering work, and the companies educational outreach programs.
