The newest member of the Raspberry Pi family has dubbed Zero and goes on sale this week. The price is set to five dollars which is equivalent to just under $ 50.
– The price should never be a barrier to anyone who is interested To learn how to program, says Eben Upton, founder of the foundation behind the Raspberry Pi in a video in which he presents the new computer on his blog.
The purpose of the inexpensive, robust computer is that more school children will have the opportunity to learn to program. But the Raspberry Pi has reached far beyond the school. So far, the foundation has sold more than five million copies including companies that use enkortsdatorn in their products.
To cut the price as much as possible the all the time been an objective. Eben Upton says that however, it becomes difficult to push it further and compare the price of a latte.
– We have gone from the cost for the four latte for one but I think it will be difficult to get over the price of a latte.
In conjunction with the launch gets buyers of the newspaper “Mag Pi” an example of the Zero for free.
– This is the first time that a computer magazine have a computer wrapping gift says Eben Upton.
The new Raspberry Pi Zero is 40 percent faster than the first model came in 2012. It has a frame memory 512 MB and a port mini HDMI and two for micro USB.
