I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B is the best value in consumer computing today. For just $35, you get a computer that can handle just about any application you throw at it, from video editing to playing video games, to everyday desktop computing tasks like web browsing and word processing.
The hype around this little computer is justified
The Raspberry Pi 4 Model B is the latest and greatest single-board computer from the Raspberry Pi Foundation. It’s a powerful little machine that can do just about anything a full-fledged desktop PC can do. From watching movies and browsing the web to playing games and running applications, the Raspberry Pi 4 can handle it all. Plus, it’s incredibly affordable, making it the perfect PC replacement for budget-minded users. But if you’re not sold on the idea of having everything in one tiny device, fear not:
One of the best things about the Raspberry Pi 4 is its versatility. You can plug in any number of accessories and peripherals to make it work exactly how you want it to. You could attach a keyboard or mouse or monitor (or even another laptop), or you could use your wireless router as an Ethernet hub so that you have an internet connection at home without needing wires going everywhere (or worry about security!). All in all, this makes the Raspberry Pi 4 one of the most exciting releases in years — especially because we now know there will be hardware support until 2022!
An all-in-one package at an unbelievable price
The new Raspberry Pi 4 Model B is a true desktop computer. It offers an incredible amount of power for such a tiny form factor and an unbelievable price tag. This board really can replace your PC, and it’s perfect for anyone looking for an inexpensive, yet powerful option. Plus, with the Raspbian operating system pre-installed, it’s easy to get started right away.
All you need to do is connect it to your monitor or TV via HDMI cable, hook up a keyboard and mouse, connect the power supply and start using it! For those who don’t have much experience with Linux systems, fear not: as long as you know how to use Windows or macOS you’ll find that this OS isn’t much different from what you’re used to. And don’t worry about compatibility: just because this runs on ARM architecture doesn’t mean that programs written for x86 won’t work on this machine (though some will require recompiling).
Build your own media centre or computer with ease
The Raspberry Pi 4 Model B is a credit-card-sized computer that plugs into your TV or monitor. It’s a great way to learn about coding and building electronics. Plus, it’s super easy to set up—you don’t need any experience! Just follow these simple steps Plug in an HDMI cable from your TV to the board
- Download Raspbian Jessie Lite onto an SD card (or write the image onto a USB stick)
- Plug in an Ethernet cable from your router to the board
- Connect one end of a USB keyboard and mouse combo to the board
- Plug-in the power supply (5V 2A) through micro-USB power connector
- You should now see text on screen with configuring wifi; press Enter when prompted, then enter raspberrypi as username/password
Because of its small form factor, it goes almost anywhere you want
The Raspberry Pi 4 Model B is the perfect PC replacement for a number of reasons. First, its small form factor means it can go almost anywhere you want. Second, its low power consumption means it won’t hog resources from your other devices. Third, its high-speed processor and ample RAM make it more than capable of handling even the most demanding tasks. Fourth, its integrated GPU gives you access to a wide range of gaming and multimedia experiences. Fifth, its multiple USB ports and HDMI output make it easy to connect to all your other devices.
Sixth, its microSD card slot lets you easily expand its storage capacity. Finally, its affordable price makes it an attractive option for anyone looking for a low-cost PC replacement. All these features combine to make the Raspberry Pi 4 Model B one of the best PCs available today.
