[[File:RpiFront.jpg|300px|thumb|right|The Rpi beta board (model B)]]<br />
<br />
'''The Raspberry Pi wiki pages on this site are a community work - the Raspberry Pi Foundation is not responsible for content on these pages.'''<br />
<br />
The Raspberry Pi (short: RPi or RasPi) is an ultra-low-cost credit-card sized Linux computer which was conceived with the primary goal of teaching computer programming to children. It was developed by the [http://www.raspberrypi.org Raspberry Pi Foundation], which is a UK registered charity (Registration Number 1129409). The foundation exists to promote the study of computer science and related topics, especially at school level, and to put the fun back into learning computing. We expect this computer to have many other applications both in the developed and the developing world.<br />
<br />
* You can get the latest news from the [http://www.raspberrypi.org Foundation Home Page], the [http://twitter.com/intent/user?screen_name=Raspberry_Pi Twitter Feed] or in the [http://www.raspberrypi.org/forum/general-discussion/news-articles-and-blog-posts-about-raspberry-pi forums].<br />
* For Raspberry Pi frequently asked questions see the [[R-Pi FAQ]] or the [http://www.raspberrypi.org/?page_id=8 Raspberry Pi Foundation's FAQ] page.<br />
* Products are RoHS and CE compliant. Please contact Raspberry Pi for details regarding WEEE in your country.<br />
* Expected cost: ~16GBP or 25USD Model A, ~23GBP or 35USD for Model B. For information about availability and shipping see the [[RPi Buying Guide | Buying Guide]].<br />
<br />
===History===<br />
* Confused about seeing different versions of the board? Visit the [[Rpi HardwareHistory | History of the Raspberry Pi Hardware]] for information about the past versions.<br />
<br />
* RegHardware's very detailed analysis is [http://www.reghardware.com/2011/11/28/raspberry_pi/ well worth a read]. Wikipedia also has [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raspberry_Pi an entry].<br />
<br />
* Russell Davis (aka forum admin [[ukscone]]) has a series of blog articles recording his perspective of the [http://russelldavis.org/2012/01/14/the-raspberry-pi-part-one/ Raspberry Pi story] in several parts from the beginning.<br />
<br />
* You will often hear mention of the BBC Micro Computer when people talk about the purpose of the Raspberry Pi Foundation. See this article on the [http://www.reghardware.com/2011/11/30/bbc_micro_model_b_30th_anniversary/ history of the BBC Micro Computer].<br />
