> A raspberry pi is only $35, but that is more than 1/3rd of their weekly income. It still isn't a useful computer though, you need quite a few more accessories that are not common in poor homes. That is incredibly cheap. When my dad bought our first home computer it was 3 or 4 times his weekly income. The bigger question is how much of their $90 is discretionary? If they have $5 a week spare then a raspberry pi is affordable.
