Any use for older model Raspberry Pi(s)?

rsc

I have a few Raspberry Pi 1 and 2 Model B V1.1.  I will trade them for other interesting stuff.

 

Other dev boards available:

 

-Odroid with display and battery

-Beaglebone Black

-Microchip multimedia board

-Hexiwear boards

-Edison "stuff"

 

Too many projects.....too little time....

  • I empathize with your dilemma. Throwing out old but functional Pi hardware seems sacrilege. Deploying and supporting old hardware to keep it around takes time. Finding an alternate home would appear to be the ideal solution. Unfortunately, I think your are seeking help in a saturated market. Unless you are willing to give them away and that doesn't necessarily mean a good home, they are going to gather dust.

     

    I've taken to donating them to local schools. Again this takes time.
