Re: [LUG] Raspberry Pi v4

[Tom via list <list@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Pimoroni have a 'let me know when in stock button' no idea if it does anything but I've clicked it on the 4gb a few times.

They also have a wish list which you can add things too so when they do come back in stock you can order them quickly. Except clicking on the 4gb one puts the 1gb one in your wishlist. They are aware!

I am hoping now they will actually send me the things that were in stock when I ordered them a few days ago ( and are still in stock)

I guess these pulses in demand can cause a few problems!

I suspect it'll be up and down for the next few weeks whilst the bulk of the demand and production settles out .. just keep clicking and refreshing folks ... :D

Last night I thought the world was sold out, but https://shop.pimoroni.com/products/raspberry-pi-4?variant=29157087445075 still has stock.

You need the new USB-C power supply and you may need a heatsink or fan (they do seem to be out of stock)

2GB versions stockpiled. 4GB versions sold out!

Yes - interesing that the 1 and 4GB ones were most popular.

There is a small possibilty of 8GB in the future though - the SoC is

capable, but the memory makers aren't - yet. (and it really won't be

upgradable at home - even if it ever does come to fruition)

I've got 16G on my laptop. I run AI stuff and massive compiles - none get

near that even using all 8 cores. TBH I don't often exceed 4G and that's

normally when my own code goes wrong or I have to use LibreOffice Draw to

correct some scans I've done of obscure books I've borrowed - and some

swap would sort that out.

You can't use a web browser very often then .. Firefox and Chromium both

'mop up' 4GB of RAM for breakfast ...

Although, I shall be interested to see how it performs under musl-libc ...

MJE

I've never thought to have a look at memory while on the browser!

Maybe later
