@gocu54 It's not old, it's based on a Raspberry pi 5. It is made with lots of off-the-shelf components, so that's cool. It's more expensive thant I would like, but they've done all the design work for you. It works with a braille keyboard. You can run Linux programs and stuff. It's kind of cool, if you're not the kind of person who wants to do DIY all the time.

@mcourcel Just to add, I think @gocu54 is saying that old is a bad thing and new is a good thing. If that's what's being said, and as respectfully as possible, that's simply false. I'm not sure about most things but it's simply not true when it comes to tech. If you think I'm wrong, I would appreciate correction, I can think of a ton of new products which are objectively worse than older ones. I can think of a bunch of products, of course, which got better as they became newer, but there's a good argument that it's not even the norm anymore. It was never universal.

@techsinger @mcourcel Incorrect. I love most old tech, I just didn't understand what people like about the BT-speak until today.

@gocu54 @mcourcel Lovely, sorry to have misread.

@techsinger @mcourcel NO offense taken friend.

@DavidGoldfield @gocu54 @techsinger @mcourcel I am going to get one of those eventually. I was so close last year, but had to do other things.

@DavidGoldfield @gocu54 @techsinger @mcourcel I watched all the tutorials, and watched the desktop tutorial.

@DavidGoldfield @gocu54 @techsinger @mcourcel watching it go from a bt speak to a linux desktop was amazing!
