$5 Computer Sells Out In One Day

Educational nonprofit Raspberry Pi has released a computer motherboard called the Zero that retails for just five dollars, selling out of the product in a single day and giving away an additional 10,000 free units with each copy of their print magazine’s December issue. What do you think?
