Customers are satisfied with the performance of the motherboard. They mention that it works great for a retro gaming system, runs great, and has no issues. Some say that it is a great computing tool for learning and development.

"...It appears to be doing well. I have tried two tutorials, both of which start by having me use "git" to install software for the tutorial...." Read more

"Works like expected. Sad it's still over priced. I needed this exact pi and had no choice." Read more

"...It does both well. It lacks a little in power for things like YouTube at 1080p, but you bump it down to 720p and you'll be having a good time...." Read more

Received New Raspberry Pi
I just received this today. It came in a new box, sealed, but no anti-static bag. ??? I added a chip and plugged it in and it works. It complains about low voltage. I tested the voltage on a Raspberry PI GPIO Extension board and get a reading of 4.97 volts from the 5 volt pin to the ground next to it. I also get 3.27 volts on the 3.3 volt pin.Seriously?!!?? It's tolerance is less than 1%??? It's no wonder pretty much every power supply sold for the device has negative reviews about "low voltage".As for using it, I did find one USB cable that could not hold up to the boot of the RPi. The rest work, but the Pi complains on all but one. It's a short cable that came with my WD Passport and it's much thicker than all my others. It works and I don't get voltage complaints.The system boots up 2018-11-13-raspbian-stretch just fine. It asked for the WiFi user name and password and did the updates. It took a while to update, so I fixed supper and it was done when I got back.It appears to be doing well. I have tried two tutorials, both of which start by having me use "git" to install software for the tutorial. Both time, Git could not find the packages. I suspect that the tutorials are a little old, so I'll keep plugging at it tomorrow.I used it on an Ethernet direct connection and on WiFi. I turn off my WiFi when on the Cat-5 because I don't know what it does with it when it's also wired.When I bought the PI, I thought it was another micro-controller like my Arduino. I didn't realize it's a full computer running Linux. I see it is good for Ham Operators (that's me! ;) so I'm sure I'll find something to put it to the test with.So far, other than the low voltage, which I seemed to have overcome with the low-loss USB wire, I don't have any complaints. I'm looking forward to playing with it and hopefully, running a little SDR.
