<div dir="ltr">Oh dear. That's pretty amazing. The only
microcontroller on ARM that comes close in price, that I know, of,
is the mcHack, and this has a GPU built in...
<div><br></div>
<div>... The only way this could get better is if intel takes note
and drops the price of its x86 embedded line. I was pretty happy
with the Pi2 -- this is an amazing deal for anyone making a project
around the pi.</div>

I imagine most of you will have already heard this
morning, but the new Raspberry Pi Zero (based on the Pi 1
architecture, but a bit faster) is $5!<br>
<br>
<a href="https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/raspberry-pi-zero/" target="_blank">https://www.raspberrypi.org/blog/raspberry-pi-zero/</a><br>
<br></div>
<div> Even at $35 is was a pretty disruptive price - at
$5 they've become virtually disposable.<br></div>
<div> I wonder if other architectures are going to try
to compete with an offering at this price, or if components this
cheap have margins too slim to be profitable.<span><font color="#888888"><br></font></span></div>
