Seeing the price of a Raspberry Pi is 25 dollars, what would make the price of a RPi skyrocket to thousands of dollars?
- rgawdzik 11y agoNote that this is looking at 10-30 years into the future (so this might be RPi v30). Most low volume (< 1k units) hardware products are expensive due to development costs. When you need to hire 10 engineers to make a computer, but only have 100 customers, your customers foot the bill.
