- martingoodson 4y agoI looked randomly into one of these 'alternatives', the Atomic Pi. It seems to be completely useless for my purposes (https://hackaday.com/2019/06/06/the-atomic-pi-is-it-worth-it/ https://hackaday.com/2019/06/06/the-atomic-pi-is-it-worth-it...). I'm starting to think waiting until Q2 is a good idea.
- nonrandomstring 4y agoFor my kids setup I actually went with a Pi Zero 3 (It's a RPi but without the USB or Ethernet ports. It's hot-glued to the back of a monitor. She's 7 and all I need is for it to run a python program that she practices typing on. They are in much better supply than the full 4GB RPi-v4 boards. You need to break out the USB with a powered hub and any connection must be by WiFi/Bluetooth, so it's harder to set up (although I did it by using an "overlay" to make the USB be a temporary TCP port to get set up).
