Why Every PC Builder Needs Some Pi
THERE’S NOTHING QUITE LIKE the thrill of building a computer: The hours spent carefully positioning boards, plugging in wires and routing cables, all leading up to the moment of truth—power on!

The Raspberry Pi 4 has enough quadcore performance to do web surfing, productivity work and programming, but if you buy one expecting to use it as a substitute PC, you’ll be disappointed.
