thanks I'll get it instead. I'm actually seeking for new computer, that'd be great if it works.

You can also get a DigitalOcean cloud VM for 5 bucks, and there are a lot of services that give you free credits too, like GitHub's student pack [[0] which has 100 dollars worth of credits for a year. At the 5 dollar a month level that should last the entire year.

or even AWS free tier for a year

where on the internet can you get a raspberry pi for 30€? search yields results for over 100€ for one

raspberry pi is overrated garbage anyways. look into some asian chip manufacturer boards.

Agree about Raspberry Pi being flaky - mostly due to cheap SDcards and/or people switching the power off without shutting down the system. But that is a typical problem with Linux on any hardware without ACPI.

Although the various Chinese Linux boards are good value for money, the documentation is often hard to read for a beginner. With the Raspberry Pi there is a mass of learner oriented materials on the internet.

As for buying a Raspberry Pi at a fair price, check out Raspberry Pi Foundations website for links.
