We were lucky enough to have a MicroCenter in the area so that probably definitely helped a little bit.
But all of that is part of the reason why I’m actually more excited for some of the new risk V Systems coming out. I think they are probably going to end up filling in what the pi used to be. But only time will tell. We still have yet to see how open the device trees and full driver support will be. But the idea of being able to get one and just slap any binary compatible version of Linux on there and not having to track down the proprietary drivers is a very desirable outcome.
