The 'S' in the title should be lowercase, it's "two Pi 4s". The current title makes it sound like there's a model called "Raspberry Pi 4S" and the Pi 5 is better than two of those Pi 4S models.
- stavros 3y agoAgreed, that's how I parsed it too.
- thiht 3y agoOr maybe « two Raspberry Pis 4 »? It feels weird to have the plural mark on the model number
- guntherhermann 3y agoIn English, it would sound strange to say "Two Raspberry Pis 4", idiomatically we would probably always say "Two Raspberry Pi Fours"
- thiht 3y agoOk! thanks for the clarification
- fanf2 3y ago“Raspberry Pies 4” is arguably correct, if you consider 4 to be a postnominal adjective. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postpositive_adjective https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postpositive_adjective But it’s weird enough that I would only use it when being jokey.
- TaylorAlexander 3y agoYes also the only reason it is capitalized in the original headline is that the headline is presented in all caps. In the article itself they say “Pi 4s”.
- MrBuddyCasino 3y agoIt is an artifact of the all-caps original title and should be lowercase.
