Yeah I'll give you that.. kits from Amazon are absolutely over priced junk. And I wouldn't suggest someone buying them. It was just a quick search.

Idk I guess I'm just still burnt by them focusing on businesses and not hobby folks back in the day. But hey gotta keep the lights on.

But yeah thanks for the discussion. I'm glad to hear there are still folks passionate about pi and the wacky stuff you can do with them. :)

Oh totally agree, and them going public (though only in UK if I understand) left me a little sour. Hopefully they'll stay on target though, I love the little buggers.
