While it’s good that they have been ramping up production, their attitude towards consumers during the shortage is something that some users won’t forget, as well as them seemingly ignoring that they are an education charity.

At least the Pi CEO acknowledges this in the CES interview with Jeff Geerling, where he mentions that the company has been “burnt” from a customer perspective. While they do contribute a lot to mobile linux development (indirectly), I think most people here would probably prefer the company just focus on their original mission of getting an affordable, credit card sized computer into users’ hands… not scalpers and hardware developers’ warehouses.

Also, I personally don’t really want to support Broadcom seeing the horrible decisions they’ve been making recently - why would they buy VMWare, then proceed to drop ALL of their partners, and put a ton of their staff out of work??
