Template:Infobox computer The Raspberry Pi is a single-board computer developed in the UK by the Raspberry Pi Foundation. Public orders are scheduled to be accepted beginning February 2012 and the foundation plans to release two versions priced at USD $25 and $35 (GBP ~£16 and ~£22). It is intended to stimulate the teaching of basic computer science in schools.
The design is based around a Broadcom BCM2835 SoC, which includes an ARM1176JZF-S 700 MHz processor, VideoCore IV GPU, and 128 or 256 megabytes of RAM. The design does not include a built-in hard disk or solid-state drive, instead relying on an SD card for booting and long-term storage.
This board is intended to run Linux kernel based operating systems.
