Is there any particular reason to get one of these when I can get a Raspberry Pi which is faster, has more memory, and a bundle of other features? I mean, the idea seems cool and all, but I'm trying to understand why I would want to spend the ~$45 on something like that when a ~$35 Raspberry Pi will do everything and more, and do it faster. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
