A first look at the new Raspberry Pi B+ and some highlights on the differences from the first models.

The other day I got an interesting email. It offered me a raspberry pie. The sender claimed it was only a “B+”, but hey, who am I to turn down free pie!?

Jokes aside… In this AddOhms episode, I give some first impressions of the new Raspberry Pi Model B+. It isn’t an all-new board, but it does have some very nice improvements over the B.

Trying to decide between an Arduino or Raspberry Pi for your project? In this video we look at what the difference between the two boards are and talk about what kinds of projects each are best at.

Episode Notes

This one has been a long time in the making for two reasons. First, I spent some time creating an opening sequence for the videos. Thanks to everyone who helped me decide on the right music to use.
