We're down for (un)scheduled maintenance right now. Please check back in a few hours.
http://www.raspberrypi.com is still up and showing the sticker for sale though.
reckon it really is just maintenance, or a big site update to reveal the stock is ready for ordering?

Re: Raspberry Pi
maintenance, given that they are back up and not announcing WE HAVE PI!

When it's sold a bajillion (next week if they have production sorted)? Not really a question even.adam wrote:just wondering if theres a niche for commercial games for the pi...
Whether they have production sorted, might be a question.
If it's really available for £25, I will get one, I don't know what for, but at that price, why worry. I won't bother if it means queuing for months though.

Re: Raspberry Pi
yeah, i looks like they got slashdotted again overnight, which took the site down and got several people excited that it was going to be an apple store style takedown.tufty wrote:maintenance, given that they are back up and not announcing WE HAVE PI!
apparently they are going to announce on the raspi forums when they will be onsale so we can all be ready to order it in time...
Re: Raspberry Pi
I *will* be self-awarely posting in the "didn't manage to get one - post here" thread when I inevitably fail to get one...
I made a deviantart page.

Re: Raspberry Pi
Holy shit, I'm no techie, but it looks like it's all 'powered' somehow by short electronic pulses. I thought computers contained 0s and 1s! No wonder it's so cheap...Baggypants wrote:you can read the datasheet instead then

Re: Raspberry Pi
Wild, huh? Another way they've cut costs is to only use the 1s, which are cheaper and take up less space when they are packed, so you can get more of them in. I don't know quite how they've done it, I guess it's part of the GPU blob.toxibunny wrote:Holy shit, I'm no techie, but it looks like it's all 'powered' somehow by short electronic pulses.
