I personally think they got on the arduino a bit late. If they were smart they should stock raspberry pis.
- mindcrime 14y agoI personally think they got on the arduino a bit late. If they were smart they should stock raspberry pis. Could be. But Arduino is still pretty popular. Heck, RPi isn't even shipping in mass consumption quantities yet. I definitely would like to see RS carry Raspberry Pi though, no disagreement there! If they were smart and were to play their cards well, I think they could still become a strong (if smaller) company by getting back to their roots and embracing DIY / hackers / makers. Imagine if you could buy a Makerbot, or a RepRap kit at Radio Shack... or even just all (or most) of the parts needed to build something like that.
