Alot of us who have a Raspberry Pi 3 or 4 might upgrade to the Raspberry Pi 5.

Doing so would leave us with 2 Pi’s. What are some great use cases for the older Pi, that would no longer be the main machine?

    Yes, here the question is if you really need to upgrade to 5, and if you really need, why not buy a dedicated NUC for example that would be a lot more powerful and extensible than the 5, while also consuming not too much more power.

      Pretty sure I just saw a decent specd one on sale for Black Friday. I almost bought it but realized I have 3 mini PCs already.

      IDK what’s happening… Pretty soon my toaster will somehow be run by these things… They just multiply.
