I have many small Raspberry Pi (Raspi) computers, but I am not "particularly fond" of this tiny computer.

"Inexpensive, small, portable, easy to clone."

These are the reasons.

For example, spending tens of thousands of yen to buy a computer to create a small database would be foolish.

The cloud is cumbersome to manage, requires cyber-attack protection, and doesn't seem very "cheap."

The Raspi is ideal for building DIY services.

However, sometimes they break for unknown reasons (often during the hot summer months), so I do not miss the SD card backups, but the problem is that I forget which backup it was.

Recently, however, this "Raspi" is expensive.

Roughly double the price of the previous purchase.

I can sell my old Raspi for more than the cost, even if I offer it used.

I am experiencing a global shortage of parts for semiconductors and other products from an unexpected source.
