One of their aims was to produce things in the UK. They didn't meet this initially, but with scale managed to bring production at least largely within the UK.
- ethbro 10y agoIsn't the entire reason we're having the "Pi can't / won't sell in industrial quantities" conversation because they can't scale production?
