On pre-ordering:
> We’re also giving every print subscriber to The MagPi and HackSpace magazines a single-use code, giving them priority access to Raspberry Pi 5 hardware.
A subscription is US$43 and up, and gets you a priority code to use at PiShop or The Pi Hut. You pay full price for the RPi 5, but it ships to you first.

- snvzz 3y agoThere's always RISC-V.
- Fnoord 3y agoCurious how Milk-V Mars CM [1] holds up to an eventual CM5 [1] https://milkv.io/mars-cm https://milkv.io/mars-cm
- brucehoult 3y agoA bit slower than a CM4, of course. The Lichee Module 4A is a CM-style board, though not compatible with CM4, and is generally a bit faster than a Pi 4. That's the fastest RISC-V you can get right now (but you can get 64 of those > Pi4 cores in one chip!). Chip and boards in RK3588 class coming next year, so that's ~Pi5.

- blowski 3y ago> Yes RPi foundation, please also spit in my mouth, Ridiculous take. Seems like a perfectly good balance, prioritising limited stock to supporters of the Raspberry Pi, beyond simply selling to the highest bidder every time.
- wasmitnetzen 3y agoMaybe OP is a bit upset after they they prioritized commercial customers for years.
- tm-guimaraes 3y agoRaspberryPis are a physical good, those have production limitations. They are also quite cheap, sell well, and have kept prices. It’s quite different from a lootbox that has no production restriction (replication is instant and almost free) I don’t believe that the low supply of RPIs is an attempt to extract huge profits, logistics are not easy. This magazine move seems more of an honest way to prioritizing people that have been showing interest. They are not demanding new subscriptions, they are prioritizing who has on. An entusiastic hobbyists, that has been accompanying the project and supporting via these, would be happy that we got his pi before some random guy clicking buy on impulse
- rewmie 3y ago> RaspberryPis are a physical good, those have production limitations. They are also quite cheap, sell well, and have kept prices. I'm not sure they kept prices. $60 for a 4GB board sounds like a price increase compared to the $50 RPi4 4GB model. And didn't the RPi model A sold for around $25?
