  • Wow, to be honest I think that that kit on Amazon is insanely over priced. $160 for that?? I attached a screen shot, I wasn’t even bargain hunting just straight from Adafruit with no discount. $105 gets me :

    • Pi 5 8GB
    • Power supply
    • Case
    • Fan
    • 128GB card

    And you’re right you can get some great deals on used mini PC, but it’s not an equivalent exchange. I can’t install lineageos in the x86 system for a home media center, like some people have said they do with their Pi. Also new product means warrenty, which can mean a lot for some folks.

    Thanks for indulging me in this price talk though.
