They also make great, local web development machines!

they also make great production servers---- The launch site for the Raspberry Pi 4 is mostly running on a cluster of 18 of the boards themselves, great feat by itself :clap:

The Raspberry Pi 4, reportedly has a buggy USB-C port that prevents many popular charging cables from supplying power. What’s more… It is the device’s sole / Only input for power.

Getting jittery now that I ordered it…

It seems like USB-C is confusing a lot of manufacturers. Hopefully it can be fixed with a firmware/BIOS update to the Raspberry Pi 4.

Really hope they do, mine is not expected up until August, so can relax a bit :sweat_smile:

If not a firmware fix, at least provide list of USB-C cable combination with charger… Get it working!!!
