“Ten thousand units of the device, about the size of a money clip, were being given away free in the U.K., packaged up with the December issue of The MagPie, Raspberry Pi’s magazine, which hit newsstands Thursday. The other 20,000 units produced by Sony Corp. in a factory in south Wales were all sold out Thursday by distributors in the U.K. and the U.S. The computer can be used to play games, such as Minecraft and Scratch, a coding tutorial program. It can also be used for many other basic processing purposes, including operating as music players and running robots, as well as having home automation uses, and even for sending tweets from space.”
