  • A bin of pi

    From Gryphon@21:1/120 to All on Tuesday, May 01, 2018 13:06:39
    I was at my local Fry's Electronics the other day (www.frys.com) and saw something interesting. They had a whole bin of raspberry pi 3B's for sale as if they were on clearance. Unfortunately, they weren't any better on price since they were going for $35 each, just like always. I'm sure they are getting rid of them so that they can get the new 3B Pluses in.

    Interesting... I think while the new model may be a step up on the last one there will still be a good demand for the older model(s)

    I think so too. I wanted to fill my cart with them. But I don't really have
    a great need for them. And if I want to get one, I'll likely get the B+
