The Raspberrry Pi 4 is back, stable & reliably available for 65 SFR at Digitec Switzerland & who cares about the Raspberry Pi 5, the Orange Pi 5 & the LattePanda Mu?

The Raspberry Pi 4 is a great product, what do you want more?:

Eventually the leepspvideo Linux setup part 4 64 bit KDE Plasma for Raspberry Pi 4:

But what more? A Raspberry Pi 5, which is currently developed by YouTube video makers? And as soon as it is developed, Raspberry Pi Inc. goes to the stocks, and the price for the Raspberry Pi 5 shoots up to 200 – 300 USD? For this price you can also have an Orange Pi 5 from Techstudio in Switzerland:

But what can we do with the Orange Pi 5? For instance intall OpenHarmony as it was done recently by YouTube video maker biblioman09 from Spain:

OpenAtom OpenHarmony, or abbreviated as OpenHarmony (OHOS), is a family of open-source distributed operating systems based on HarmonyOS derived from LiteOS, donated the L0-L2 branch source code by Huawei to the OpenAtom Foundation. And biblioman09 from Spain is one of the most advanced YouTube video makers for the Orange Pi 5 we know.

Alternatively you can buy a LattePanda Mu which recently was presented by Jeff Geerling:

If you are a soft- and hardware debugger, go for it and buy it. But for the time being Peter Gamma from www.petergamma.org is completely happy with the Raspberry Pi 4 and the leepspvideo Linux setup part 4 64 bit KDE Plasma for Raspberry Pi 4. And he knows what he is talking about after 528 post about single board computers on his site:
