“My first Pi experience...
I bought this to implement a 'Pi-Hole' DNS filter and have succeeded with little difficulty.
Being a newcomer, I had to follow installation instructions carefully from a bookazine on the Pi but it wasn't difficult.
Surprisingly it all seemed quite familiar despite having not used Unix/Idris/Linux systems since the early 1980s!
Now I know how easy it is to buy a cheap computer to solve a problem.”
“For the price I wasn't expecting much from a wireless computer costing less than a fancy pizza. It runs Node on Linux like a dream and uses hardly any power. I have only used the command line so I can't comment on the graphics. Amazing value.”
“What is there not to like about a computer that for less than £10 (around £15 with SD card) can act as a hub for your smart home including an on line security camera to check all is okay when away from home. However, only three stars as one evening my old RP failed after about six months use for no apparent reason with a little bang and a small puff of smoke.”
