Almost exactly ten years ago today, thousands of you set your alarms, and woke on leap-day morning to discover that we’d started selling Raspberry Pi computers. By the time our all-volunteer team gathered in the pub that evening for celebratory drinks, our licensees Farnell and RS Components had taken over 100,000 orders (despite struggling to keep their websites online under the load); we had (briefly) out-trended Lady Gaga; and Raspberry Pi was on the road to becoming a little larger than we’d planned.

Fellow St. Louisan, albeit much less famous ;-), and IT Practicioner, chimes in with a hearty HERE HERE!!! My Pi, in it's custom 3d printed case (that I'm very proud of) with a nice OLED status screen, ice tower cooler, etc.... is my daily driver. After a hiatus of approx 5 years from IT, my return, my passion for a life long career and hobby, was reignited by this little device. Through the pandemic, the projects I explored and the work I did with this saved me in more ways than one. Living the single life, isolation is already present, but the added isolation from the Covid event took it even higher. The ability to dive into this little piece of wonder, learn, and grow, kept me sane. Lastly, as a scout leader for years, seeing the work the PI has done in education, makes me even prouder to own one and be an enthusiast. THANK YOU! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

Not just that on lower quantities it's actually cheaper then building things from cheaper ICs. Because the hours to design a board with let's say: USB and ethernet alone would cost more then just buying 2 Pis. So even on the professional scale there are very relevant use cases if you want to deploy less then 100 devices. Even if you barely use half the hardware and specialized ICs would theoretically call less then 10%. Those boards would need to be designed first and that costs a good bunch of developer hours which are more expensive then a bunch Pis. Also in some cases they cut the need for a dedicated hardware dev altogether.

To this day, I still don't have a Zero...there appears to be some sort of interdiction in place. Very off-putting! Seems to mar what has otherwise been absolutely fantastic in every way.

Thank you so much Raspberry Pi team... My first introduction into Linux, self hosting, and a bunch more was from the RPi. I initially got one to run Retropie because I just wanted a retro console that I can carry around. I didn't understand much of what this thing was, other than the fact that I could follow a few steps and get a cheap console. One thing lead to another and I discovered many more projects and now I've developed a deep interest in computing overall. I've learnt a lot of things since, but I attribute all of it to the interest induced by the RPi i bought in 2017. Thank you for rebuilding a generation of enthusiasts.

Excellent work. As a middle aged hobbyist on a part-time minimum wage budget, the Pi is almost like a dream come true. I've used one in 2 projects so far, 1 serious and 1 fun project, and both were excellent value and have more than enough CPU power/RAM to do the job. The first one I bought was a bit of fun, but also really helpful. As someone who has loved video games since I was a small child and still own the vast majority of my gear, and use a lot of it semi-regularly, the hassle and mess of having so many systems(upwards of 10 at the time) semi-setup(my TV only has 2 HDMIs and 1 SCART, and I only have 2 spare plug sockets without risking overload), so setting up a Pi with the Batocera emulation system was amazing. Now what used to take up over half of my room is now done by 2 game consoles(the Pi doesn't have the power to emulate later systems, obviously) and a computer what is, for lack of better term, the size of a box of cigarettes. It also helped massively in that two of my older systems(A1200 and C64) were suffering from data loss due to natural bit rot on magnetic media. The second is a NAS drive that I use to store backup disk images of every drive in my house using OpenMediaVault. The entire thing cost less than £150, and that includes an 8TB hard disk. I can now effectively lose a hard disk/SSD, and be up and running with minimal data loss in the time it takes to buy a replacement drive. I can't wait to see what you'll do in the future.

I remember ordering my first Pi, it was a Pi 1 Model B. The idea of having a tiny computer as small as a credit card is what excited me, plus I had some experience running Linux. It took couple of years of maturity (both for me and the Pis themselves) before I truly understood the potential of having these small, energy efficient machines for home projects. Now I have loads of Pis and Pi Zero Ws dotted around the place (along with ESPs as well). Running as streaming servers for music and video. Managing ambient LEDs behind my TV. Controlling my entire smart home and collecting sensor data. Things I know my younger self would be in awe of. Thanks for a glorious 10 years!

Found this video today. Just yesterday I finished my controller project for my Ikea Idasen standing desk. That desk was bloody pricey, yet they apparently couldn't fit a few buttons in the budget to give me height presets. You need a Bluetooth app on your phone for that. Luckily, people had made open source programs to do that from a PC, so I went "hold on, I got this Raspberry Pi Zero W in my drawer, it's a PC, it has Bluetooth, it's got GPIO pins, I'm just gonna make my own button panel!", which is exactly what I did. It's a little crude but boy does it work. I want to take this opportunity to thank you for your amazing work. I've used Pis in a bunch of projects. My first Pi allowed me to run a home server for a price I could afford as a teenager. It got me into Linux. I don't think I would be where I am today without my Pi 3B. Thank you. Keep up the good work.

Having started on a Spectrum and Commodore Vic 20 and gone onto university studying CS, and a 20+ year career in software, I've had a similar journey. Now having 4 Pi's at home, I've found that simply having the freedom to play with a machine that isn't my main desktop is so much fun. Being able to tear apart the OS and customise it to the extreme, has taught me so much about OS's and other aspects of cumputers which I don't get to explore in my day-to day. I think that the Pi is such an important learning tool for the 21st centuary. Good luck for the next 10.

A great video telling a compelling story. I was lucky. Back in the 80's I saved my pocket money and bought a ZX80. Soldered it up and I was hooked on computing. Over the years I had the opportunity to use/own ZX81, Spectrum, Dragon 32, Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Commodore 64 and Mactintish and well as regular PC's. At school though there was an issue. If you were in the top sets computing wasn't an option. So I left school and took an apprenticeship in engineering. Fast forward 10 years and I quit work to study for 6 months (UMIST Manchester - thanks for believingin me Dr. Brunn). Computing had took off in engineering and I needed to get a foundation in CAD/CAM. My career changed. I was now a setter/operator/programmer of CNC machinery. Obviously when Raspberry Pi launched I was an early purchaser. I now have a collection doing all sorts of cool stuff (SatNOGS Station, 3d printer monitor, Christmas decorations etc.). Nowadays I program robotic optical scanners in metrology for an automotive manufacturer but still wander where I would be if computing at school had been an option.

Both of my parents barely touched tech and where late adopters of things like mobile phones and smart phones, but the raspberry pi platform pared with youtube gave me everything I needed to really learn, play, and tinker as much as I wanted. I got to enjoy a lot of retro games too on the platform. I mostly played a selection of nes games and I also played quake 3. I'm still blown away that my pi 2 could handle playing quake 3 online a smooth frame rate. Even still I use my old raspberry pi as a light server device.

Wonderful intro. I got into computing in 1981 when I built a single board computer based on the Z80 processor running at 1Hz so I could trace all clock cycles. I had a 8 byte memory box made of wood, 3.5mm (8x8 ) headphone jacks and pluggable diodes. As I moved through my next computer the second hand ZX81 (love of my life at the time), I had learnt Machine Code. Got into Engineering to work on IBM PCs with floppy discs identifying me as ‘the guy who knows more’ and then to my horror arrived the Windows mouse driven platform enabling everyone to use the PC. 😂 I now have several RPis and tinker in both HW and Software, more so in NLP.

I got recommended this video last night and it got me going down a little KZfaq rabbit hole finding out about this stuff. Ultimately, it led me to impulse buy a Raspberry Pi 400 kit in the wee hours of the morning around like 3am just because it looked neat. On an unrelated note... Happy Pi Day (3/14)

It just amazes me how this small thing can fit in the palm of my hand, doesn’t consume a lot of power and doesn’t break anyones bank. This definitely has inspired a generation of programmers.

I can honestly say, the raspberry pi changed my life, brought tears to my eyes watching this video, because it's a part of my story as well. I couldn't thank this team enough.

Amazing. I live on a boat and run my whole power system monitoring on a Raspberry Pi taped to the wall in my cabinet. Absolutely love them and the freedom they give me to program bespoke solutions at low power and small form factor. Thanks!

My Raspberry Pi, kicks off more conversation than my gaming PC, and the easy of a retro gaming experience, has gotten them into the hands of my very blue collar coworkers. I’m completely blown away, at the popularity your machines have gained. I’m excited to see where this goes from here.

Thank you so much for this wondeful device and the philosophy behind it! I also started in the C64 and I still love it, not (just) because of nostalgia, but also because it defined my career path. And that is exactly the reason why I love the RPI, please keep up the good work! :)

The Raspberry Pi has become a wonderful way to build tech skills. It'll be great to see how many children end up with IT careers because they had access to a Pi.

I came from the ZX days and agree completely, this was my gateway into a career of computers, mostly through the lens of design with the occassional dip into programming. I have the ZX on display in my office and several Raspi4's in my network cabinet. Thanks for creating such a great machine.

Very inspiring video! I still remember when I first heard about a Raspberry Pi. I was in my teen years and this machine just seemed so perfect. Fast forward 10 years. Studying Computer Science, owning 5 Pis and I would lie if I said that it did not inspire me. Even though I feel like it is not really a good thing, that Computer Science went to this very very competitive thing at the universities. In real life, programmers help each other out. With open source or maybe just the right input on stack overflow. In my experience the university teaches more like a do-your-own-thing kind of thinking and not the teamplay, that computer science is and that makes big projects possible.

I really appreciate the efforts of the people who work to design, manufacture, and maintain the hardware and software for the Pis. Also, thanks for keeping everything open-source, maintaining backwards compatibility, and allowing other manufactures to make similar boards. The Pi4B has significantly upgraded my knowledge on computers and their workings. Thank you.

Video games got me into computing. I always wanted to know how to make whatever I wanted. It used to be to make games, but then I just wanted to make things that were fun in any way or just looked cool. I own a dozen pis (from the original A to the 4) and I thank you all for creating these nifty little boards. I love the platform.
