I looked back in your post history a couple of pages, didn't see said comment.

However, there is no way it's 10% more expensive than the original Pi with inflation. It's easily double, if not more.

You can buy low end tablets significantly cheaper now. A tablet with a screen, more ram, storage, a battery.

A Pi is a rip off, for what it costs to build.

It's not like they make the OS or kernel either. They basically copy and paste Debian, and add some fluff modz, most of it OSS they didn't write.

My mistake, it was indeed 20% percent, aka 10 bucks.

rPi3 40 EUR form 2016 is now ~52 EUR adjusted for inflation.

Compared to 62 EUR for the current model rPi 2Gb.

Cheapest tablet with larger then 1gb ram locally is around ~85 EUR. All prices including 25% VAT.

Unless you want your printer to power up on demand, then you need a separate PSU and an SSR (and you still need a buck converter because printers don't supply 5V at required amperage).

Sorry, correct. I meant I don't need THE official raspberry pi 5A USB C PSU. It still needs power.
