Raspberry Pi.
I love how such a small computer can overpower many of the computers I had for much of my life. And still overpowers moat of the old computers people still has today in my country.
Unfortunately, for a $35 computer, they sure are expensive.
the shortage seems to be over, they've increased production and secured chip supply so you should be able to find them at RRP again.
They're still $93 in Australia, for the Model 4 B 4GB, and still out of stock at most sellers.
People still selling them used for more than $100 on Gumtree and Market place.
ah yeah i see on https://rpilocator.com/?country=AU that only the pi4 is available from an official seller, hopefully that changes for you soon. We've got pretty much the whole range available in the UK now and for a couple of years it's been really difficult to get any of them, one type would come in to stock every few weeks and then sell out instantly
