For those who have retro set-ups, the new Raspberry Pi is on it's way. Due 23/10.

I ordered one of the these just now. Thanks for the link. Got the most powerful one with all the fan and case additions.

Are they reasonably straightforward to setup? I've seen some of the crazy applications people have used them for in the past, I've no intention to do anything particularly exciting with it.

Looks more powerful than the 4, no question. For a homemade replacement for my Nvidia Shield TV box, I'm still leaning towards the Orange Pi 5 though, which is considerably more powerful both in terms of CPU and Ram.
