Please Note: This is not the latest model of the Raspberry Pi. The latest model is the Model 4B+
The Raspberry Pi 3 Model B is a tiny credit card size computer that was designed in the UK by the Raspberry Pi Foundation. Originally intended to assist in teaching computer science, the Pi's accessible price makes it popular with hobbyists/makers/hackers who use it to create everything from Living Room PCs to Robotics Projects. Just add a keyboard, mouse, display, power supply, micro SD card with installed Linux Distribution and you'll have a fully fledged computer that can run applications from word processors and spreadsheets to games.
As the Raspberry Pi 3 supports HD video, you can even create a media centre with it. The Raspberry Pi 3 Model B is the first Raspberry Pi to be open-source from the get-go, expect it to be the defacto embedded Linux board in all the forums.
