'Just in time for the holiday season, Raspberry Pi has launched two highly anticipated products that promise to revolutionize compact computing. Enter the Raspberry Pi 500 and the official Raspberry Pi Monitor, designed to provide a sleek and complete desktop experience at an exceptionally affordable price. Raspberry Pi’s mission has always been clear: to provide affordable, programmable personal computers to people worldwide. Over the years, this vision has expanded as the company has grown into one of the leading manufacturers of industrial and embedded computers. For example, products like the $15 Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W and the flagship Raspberry Pi 5 have demonstrated the company’s ability to cater to both cost-conscious and performance-driven audiences. Let’s also not forget that just two weeks ago, the company announced another exciting product, the Raspberry Pi Compute Module 5, specifically designed for embedded applications. And now, building on the success of the Raspberry Pi 400, the newly launched Raspberry Pi 500 takes compact computing to the next level. Combining the high-performance Raspberry Pi 5 platform with an all-in-one form factor, this device offers exceptional power and versatility: - Processor: 2.4GHz quad-core 64-bit Arm Cortex-A76 - Memory: 8GB LPDDR4X-4267 SDRAM - Graphics: VideoCore VII GPU, supporting OpenGL ES 3.1 and Vulkan 1.3 - Display Outputs: Dual 4Kp60 HDMI - Connectivity: Dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, and Gigabit Ethernet - Ports: 2 USB 3.0, 1 USB 2.0 - GPIO Connector: Horizontal 40-pin Raspberry Pi GPIO' -- source: https://linuxiac.com/raspberry-pi-500-announced/ Cheers, Peter
