“Normaly I would just buy an SD card and install to OS myself. But I got lazy and thought what the heck I'll just get the OS installed this time. I ordered a Raspberry 5 with this SD card. However, the OS on the card was 32 bit??? Yeah, that's what I want to run on this Pi 5!
I sent a note to support about this and this is the response:
"These are currently at 32-bit due to that being the recommended version for Pi 4 and below which is the majority of Pi's in the market.
It's simple to re-flash the SD card to 64-bit using the Raspberry Pi imager."
Actually, I know it's simple to install but the point is that I paid, I thought, to have the latest OS installed or, atleast a 64 bit OS........”
“Plug and play. Obviously you can build these yourself via the Raspberry Pi website but this is a convenient method of having a bootable pi desktop when all your other SD cards are allocated elsewhere!
Super fast delivery by the people at PiHut as ever.”
