The price didn't go down, he's factoring in current ram prices. $250 for an rpi 5 is wild.

All these price increases feel like a push to lease computers instead of owning them. I remember the NZXT rental scam that Gamers Nexus exposed, wouldn't be surprised if more companies jump on this bullshit line of business

Remember, they are no longer a charity organization, but a publicly traded for-profit business that is “mostly owned” by a charity. If you wondered why they were overpriced and enshittifying, that is why.

A Mini PC with an N100 (exact same performance as the microprocessor in the Pi5 according to [this](https://www.cpu-monkey.com/en/compare_cpu-intel_processor_n100-vs-raspberry_pi_5_b_broadcom_bcm2712)) and 8GB RAM will cost you around $140, which per what a previous poster dug out is exactly the same price as a Pi**4** with only 4GB if we're talking about something with the equivalent kit (i.e. with box, dissipators, power supply and HDMI cable)

What about ddr4 mini pc’s with i5-8500t’s? Couldn’t possibly be a worse bang for buck
