Revisiting "going in the wrong direction"

The original


At the beginning of 2013, I posted "Going in the wrong direction". I figured it would be a good time to revisit the theme. From 2012 to 2015, what does $35 buy you, and did we ever reach the predicted $20 / sub $20 computing units?

Sure, microcontrollers have come down in price. For example, an ARM based unit:


But what about computers with an OS?

 The follow up

It's on my new blog, talking a bit about the progression of inexpensive tech, thanks to Moore's law:

A new blog on future tech and innovation

I invite you to visit and bookmark my multilingual future tech / innovation / 3D blog. I just started it, and I think you'll like it:

There might be some cross posts, particularly since Python and the Raspberry Pi are used in so many innovations.
