I remember being so happy going into Comp-USA and seeing so many different gadgets that I wanted to buy. It might have been 2000 when I bought my Palm PDA but they had been on the decline a little bit by then. I never hot my $300 out of it that's for sure.

Regarding Raspberry Pi gonna see if there is a community for it on Lemmy. Maybe that would be part of the Linux discussion.
