The Raspberry Pi is a low- cost, credit-card sized minicomputer. It is a powerful device that enables people of all ages to explore computing and to learn how to program in languages like Scratch and Python. It’s capable of doing everything you’d expect a regular desktop computer to do, such as searching the internet and watching high-definition video or making spreadsheets, word-processing, and playing games.

In addition, the Raspberry Pi has powerful multimedia and 3D graphics capabilities, so it has the potential be used as a game platform and more games written by Raspberry Pi is much expected. Moreover, the Raspberry Pi has the ability to interact with the outside world and has been used in a variety of digital maker projects, from music machines and parent detectors to weather stations and tweeting birdhouses with infra-red cameras. The Raspberry Pi has being used by kids all over the world to learn to program and understand how computers work.

Compare with Model B

The Model B+ is the higher-spec variant of the Raspberry Pi. Compared to the Model B it has:

  • More GPIO. The GPIO header has grown to 40 pins, while retaining the same pinout for the first 26 pins as the Model B.
  • More USB. We now have 4 USB 2.0 ports, compared to 2 on the Model B, and better hot plug and over current behavior.
  • Micro SD. The old friction-fit SD card socket has been replaced with a much nicer push-push micro SD version.
  • Lower power consumption. By replacing linear regulators with switching ones we’ve reduced power consumption by between 0.5W and 1W.
  • Better audio. The audio circuit incorporates a dedicated low-noise power supply.
  • Neater form factor. We’ve aligned the USB connectors with the board edge, moved composite video onto the 3.5mm jack, and added four squarely-placed mounting holes.
