5. 5. The Raspberry Pi is a credit-card sized computer that plugs into your TV and a keyboard. Its a capable little PC which can be used for many of the things that your desktop PC does, like spreadsheets, word-processing and games. It also plays high-definition video. We want to see it being used by kids all over the world to learn programming. Source: http://www.raspberrypi.org/faqs What is the Raspberry PI?
6. 6. History of Raspberry PI University of Cambridges Computer Laboratory in 2006, a need for a tiny and affordable computer came to their minds. Several versions of the early Raspberry Pi prototypes were designed but were very limited by the high cost and low power processors for mobile devices at that time.
7. 7. In 2008, the team started a collaboration with Pete Lomas(MD of Norcott Technologies ) and David Braben (coauthor of the seminal BBC micro game Elite) and formed the Raspberry Pi Foundation. Three years later, the Raspberry Pi Model B was born and it had sold over two million units within in two years of mass production.
