Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Good video!  :)

Unfortunately, by the time you've included the new PSU and cooler (probably obligatory if you want to get any real work out of it) then the price is going to be far closer to £100 (if not more) than £80. That's pushing things a bit.

I dont know if they are technically still state-of-the-art.
for ~120€ you can buy a refurbished Lenovo ThinkCentre M700 Tiny
With Power suply, Case , i5-6500T, 8 GB ,240 GB SSD,Win 10 Pro.

this is cheaper than the PI, where you have to buy housing, power supply and external memory

For some reason Raspberry Pi haven't shown any interest in what is probably the best version of the Pi to date...

Apparently The Register have played with a Pi 5 and, without a cooler, couldn't get it to run hotter than 80C. The chip is more efficient so a cooler may not always be needed.

Audio is now only via a USB DAC as the 3.5mm audio jack has been removed.

rpi 400 is not as good as an optiplex £80 mini pc same for rpi 5. alternatives for price and not linux. I think a refurb lenovo or dell better.
ok it's a small board but add kb, mouse, psu and monitor
