I hope to live long enough to see a rpi with 8 or 16 cores with 32GB LPDDR5 running Blender, Gimp, Inkscape and firefox/Librewolf with some 100 tabs, maybe throw in some CS 2 or Alien:Isolation in there.
I am very dissapointed with the RPi5, I was expecting the next RPi to at least match the CPU and memory specs of my Orange Pi 5 which I use for game emulation, I have the same cores as the RPi5 and then another 4 slightly slower ones and I have 32Gb of memory, 8Gb is entry level for anything these days! It seems like they knocked this together on the back of a beer mat, RPi will have to try harder to get my custom!
A lot of people are complaining the opposite, that Raspberry Pi has abandoned their "true customers" and are too concerned with making the Pi into a Desktop PC. Meanwhile all of the Pi 5s will sell out almost immediately.
@@Roy_1 My opinion is that the hobbyist community of which I am one is catered for by the software/firmware developers not RPi org directly, my opinion is that he educational community is the true customer, after all bringing cheap computing to schools and children who's parents could not afford a computer was more ore less the Rpi mission statement, please correct me if I am incorrect though, an advancing desktop is a requirement of all modern computers, the RPi 1 had a desktop and although slow I did occasionally boot it to change config files on other SD's
@@AndrewAHayes The increase in power over the Pi 4 will prove sufficient for many users, to paraphrase: Upton considers it to be practically equivalent to his 2015 MacBook Air in power. I think the key is that the price for an equivalent ram config is only a $5 increase over the Pi 4. Obviously in raw power other SBCs will hold the crown, but I think the Pi 5 walked the line between price and power pretty well. The real concern is how well they can keep them in stock, if they can't, the market will adjust the price much higher.
I am most disappointed the new Pi lacks internal storage option, micro SD is not designed to replace the hard drive and will fail after some times of use, I got few bad cards from cell phone use. PCIe is a good addition, but one would need an adapter card as big as if not bigger than the Pi itself to make use of it ! The 2nd most disappointment is still use the fragile micro HDMI connector, I broke one of them on my Pi 4 already. And I don't know why the simple audio jack also removed, this is a SBC not a module, should have every essential parts onboard.
I really enjoyed this video, great interview. He seems much more relaxed in this one.
Would very much like a Micro Center in San Diego. Huge number of Pi users here!
Will we ever get Micro Centers in the UK?
I really wonder if Microcenter will ever be able to stock the Raspberry Pi 5...or the Raspberry pi 4....or the zero....or even the Pico.
I just watched him in the Expendables 4, not the best one but not bad.
I wasn't able to get a hold of #4, but I'm having a good time with #5.

Anyone else thought for a second that it was Jason Statham?
The transporter is not only a badass, he's also the CEO of Raspberry Pi as well!
I can't take him completely seriously because he sounds like Hugh Laurie
I love how his voice destroys audio production.

Id hope the orange pi 5 wins, its a more expensive board lol
