For those of you who use Raspberry Pi’s in your home environment, I’m curious as to what you use them for. What applications are you running on them? Do you have your Pi’s setup in a cluster?

I don't buy any pis because they are $100+ in Canada.

Remember when it was supposed to be a cheap computer? Ya..

    Have you checked recently? According to the rPi locator, they’re starting to be available again

    Just checked. All of the "cheap" ones require you to order 2+, and then have insane shipping costs. The rest are $100-120 CAD.

    I don't think these things will ever be affordable. People who want one badly, will pay the money, and everyone knows it. No need to sell them at MSRP.
