I'd love to buy a 500+

https://www.raspberrypi.com/products/raspberry-pi-500-plus/

I can't justify it though as I've no use for it.

However I think it is way closer to their original vision than anything else, i.e. It is a lot like the 1980s computers, the magic they were trying to capture.

I love the idea, but the price/power ratio is just a teeeny bit on the expensive side for me.

For 100€ that would be something I'd buy for every niece and nephew to play with. For 200€ it's not even for me, I'd rather buy something like the uConsole RPI-CM4: https://www.clockworkpi.com/product-page/uconsole-kit-rpi-cm...

Clockwork Pi experience with the CM4 is not good. 10 months to ship. Horrible Wifi performance, can't hold a link, and it only has around 50 minutes of battery life. I regret my purchase and it's sitting in my rack next to a bunch of old ham radios.

		Sell it on ebay to one of those people that have to wait 10 months, instead of letting it rot on a shelf?

		It’s still more up my alley than the pi 500
