[–] PeachMan@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (2 children) It STARTS at $60. Why are people hung up on the 8GB version? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [–] ShranTheWaterPoloFan@startrek.website 3 points 2 years ago Because it's what they will buy, it's what I'll buy. And it suits their argument. Calling people out for not reading the article when they are quoting a price from the article is silly though. That being said, I don't really buy the comparison between the optiflex and the pi. It's like saying you can buy a perfectly good Geo metro as opposed to building a kit bike. permalink fedilink source parent [–] AA5B@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago For me, the pi 4 4GB had been the sweet spot, however they’re saying pi 5 is roughly twice as fast, so I’m expecting 8GB to be the sweet spot permalink fedilink source parent
