@gary_alderson @geerlingguy this is very niche, worth it

@JoMomma @geerlingguy not worth it for majority since it is so niche, good if you want to learn but practical benefits are very low, much more value to e had with refurb pc

@gary_alderson @geerlingguy "...good if you want to learn..."

@JoMomma @geerlingguy good if you want to learn and if you learn on a refurb pc then you can take advantage of pci lanes, more memory, expanability and not be kitty cornered into pi platform which is limited - has much more value and practical learning possibilities than arm. i am just sayng go for something good not limited - the principles are ok but overall it is pi spam

@gary_alderson @geerlingguy okay Gary

@JoMomma @geerlingguy i am right for the majority of users anyways - if you are just focused on pi maybe not

@gary_alderson @geerlingguy I'm sure you're right

@JoMomma @geerlingguy pi needs pi6 to move on and keep relevance - they don't show any roadmaps so how can you make a good decision with no info? just get a refurb pc like a hp g4 for less money than a pi and have a platform that meets requirements and is not kitty cornered into workarounds - i am not asking for much just reasonable value assessment

@gary_alderson @geerlingguy cool...oh look it's nice outside

@JoMomma @geerlingguy people want real world biz application after 'learning' - you don't see pi at the office - you do see tons of old hp boxes

@gary_alderson @geerlingguy I'm a people... I like pi... it's still nice outside, think I'll connect to my pizero and have it cycle my HVAC air and update my solar settings

@JoMomma @geerlingguy you are underserved
