RaspberryPi company sells 500,000+ (2nd company sales suggest close to 1,000,000
« on: January 11, 2013, 07:15:43 AM »
The folks at element 14/Premier Farnell announced today that they alone have now made and sold more than half a million Raspberry Pis. They’re only one of two official distributors; we don’t have completely up-to-date figures from RS Components yet, but Farnell’s news suggests that we’re well on the way to having sold our millionth Raspberry Pi.

I’ve not got much more to say – but I will note that we’ll be opening a bottle of something fizzy tonight!

Yes I read that .......  quite an achievement!

I saw it the same day my Pi arrived  :D

It would be nice if they could afford an upgraded version later in the year .......  hopefully they have no funding problems after sales like that.
