£25 Raspberry Pi PC Sells Out in Minutes

Raspberry Pi – a £25 computer – went on sale this morning and sold out within minutes.

The credit-card sized device sports a 700MHz ARMv6 CPU, a GPU with enough grunt to decode 1080p HD video, 256MB of RAM, audio, HDMI, SD and USB ports – and a tonne of possibilities.

The Pi doesn’t ship with an OS of its own (it doesn’t even have storage of its own) but a Fedora spin designed for the Pi is available for booting from an SD card.
