Raspberry-Pi-Zero.gif

The Raspberry Pi foundation has broken a new
record by launching a computer for the price
of just $5 or 4 British pounds. Ultracompact,
with no pre-installed operating system,
Raspberry Pi Zero has just the essentials -- a
processor, RAM, basic ports and a micro-SD
card slot.
On the component front, the Raspberry Pi
Zero has a 1Ghz ARM11 processor (40 per
cent faster than the one used on the original
Raspberry Pi), 512 MB of RAM, two micro-
USB sockets, a mini-HDMI socket and a
micro-SD card slot.

It weighs very little and can be held in one
hand (65mm x 30mm x 5mm). It runs on the
free operating system Raspbian, which is
based on Linux, and is delivered with a few
applications (Scratch, Minecraft and Sonic Pi).
A few hours after it was put on sale it was
already out of stock. Another way of getting
your hands on it is by subscribing to the
(print) magazine The MagPi.
The foundation became famous in 2011 when
it launched the Raspberry Pi, a tiny single-
board computer with an ARM processor.
Model B+ of this computer is currently
available for $25.
