This month, Jan Fagerholm will be here with the new Raspberry Pi 4B, and some discussion of what it is for. The Raspberry Pi is the leader in what is known as single-board computers, or SBC, a complete computer on a single board about the size of a deck of cards. Raspberypi.org, the creator of the Raspberry Pi, has bundled it with its own keyboard and mouse to make it just about the cheapest desktop computer you can find. In addition to being a basic desktop computer, its real credentials are in the Maker community, where it is the core of many hardware and software projects. You’ll get a look at some of them, as hardware will be available for examination. Raspberrypi.org has sold 25 million of these things, so somebody finds it useful. See what the Raspberry Pi will do, on or off the desktop.

RAFFLE !!! This month, get a Sandisk Ultra Fit 128 GB flash drive. Ultra modern tiny form factor, USB 3.1, up to 130 MB/sec. read speed (That’s 15x faster than USB 2.0). Did I say ultra modern tiny form factor? (Check the picture) USB storage gets real – and it’s YOURS for the price of a raffle ticket. That’s $5 each, at the table at the front of the meeting.
