“AAaargwannawannaaaagongongonaargggaaaaBLOON!” which is the traditional sound of a very small child learning that with balloons, as with life itself, it is important to know when not to let go of the string. The whole point of balloons is to teach small children this.”

@Tedgarrison3 I think they were just moving down to new work area but we are having 40-50 mph winds. Not going to faze that big work boat.
Lower RAM version is $138 with free shipping and in stock. Depends on your use case, but at least an alternative that is not so backordered. I bought mine just to run SpinRite on my hard drives. A Raspberry Pi can not do that.
I have found these to be pretty cool alternatives:
@rdaily If you're looking for a #RaspberryPi at the retail price I'd recommend you check @rpilocator for stock, https://rpilocator.com. Some Approved Resellers have boards stock most weeks, I think @adafruit puts batches up on Thursdays (Wednesdays maybe?). They get snapped up quickly though, in minutes.
@rdaily @rpilocator @adafruit As an aside the "estimated shipment date(s)" are generally garbage, they're generated by projecting current supply levels into the future without taking into account any future changes. We expect supply to recover to pre-pandemic levels in the second quarter of 2023, and to be unlimited in the second half of the year. https://www.raspberrypi.com/news/supply-chain-update-its-good-news/
