You do realise how many they have sold, right?

Yeah, I bought some of them. I use none of them. There’s more demand for laptops.

Yes. There is more demand for laptops than Raspberry Pis. However, there must be a fair amount of Raspberry Pi demand out there considering they flogged over 30 million boards and I don't think that was to try and make 30 million crappy laptops.

They’re cheap toys that seem cool but end up having little practical use. My point isn’t that they’re useless, just that they have an awful lot of potential to be useless, and a lot of the time a laptop would be better.
