Oh boy! I can’t wait to buy another similar single board computer with lesser software support when these all immediately go out of stock and cost 3x on eBay.
All jokes aside, I really hope there will be adequate stock for hobbyists this time around.
I’m also stoked to see what a new pi0W might bring to the table this generation with such an increase in SOC performance.

Saw the headline, wondered why you’d want heating.

Read the article, seems like they just mean measuring how much it heats up under load ;p they aren’t otherwise actively heating it

I did read the article, and I understand they meant measuring the temps under load under various circumstances. It’s a good article, and helpful. I just had a confusing reaction to the headline.

Made sense to me for really cold environments to keep the chipset at its optimal temp. Didn’t read the article tho

I thought it meant something like that, but no. They stress test the new hardware with and without active cooling, bare, with a hat, and with the case. It’s a good article if you’re considering getting one. Very thorough.
