This was a fun April-Fools joke we did for 2015. The full text of the post is archived here.
We hope everyone enjoyed the joke and that great fun was had finding all the ‘Easter Eggs’ on the photo.

April fool??????!!!!!
Yep
I fell for it until the diagonal taskbar. 😀 And the whole time I was fuming because I bought an older Pi right before the 2 came out, which I bought too, kind of annoyed at the timing. Well played!
What is clock speed?
What is maximum of sd card? Could it be 512GB sd card?
April Fools!
I’ll wait until the C+ comes out, at the current rate of development of the RasPi this one will be out of date by midday. 😉
I wait until raspberry pi model D comes out too.
No – Important to wait for the C++ version to be released so it will work with the new WIN 11.1 version – soon to be released by Microsoft
April fools joke….
Love it, but is it the 1st of April?.. Otherwise I’ll have 3
Alas for the date, having a Pi with on board 328P MCU would be a great match.
love it! especially the detail gone into the pic, 4rse? 😉
Hee hee.
Brilliant got half way down the write up before the penny dropped … Well Done
Let me put my credit card away. I bought it hook, line, and sinker.
Hook, rod, line, sinker and copy of angling times.
bugger, bugger, bugger i thought it was for real
The price is the same as the Pi 2 B
However it uses the new nanoSD ZC cards. These are a dimunitive 7mm x 5mm and currently the only size available is 1TB (TeraByte) currently priced around £700.00 (GBP)
If only I had the money… 😉
Haha, just spotted the StarWars reference. Nice touch 🙂
I spotted it as an April Fools joke straight away, but wouldn’t it be nice to have a raspberry pi with lots more memory and even faster processors?
I knew it was an April Fools joke, but a cruel one. I would love the ram & faster bus!

😀
I can’t believe I fell For it!
I actually managed to place an order following links supplied.
Guess I will get a refund soon.
Matt, this is a cruel joke! LOL!
damn, first time in decades ive been aprilsfooled. its still not funny though – bastards 🙂
Ok I fell for it
hee hee.
I also guessed this out.
Though it was a (good) joke, the spec was not implausible. I do hope something like this see the light of day sometime, even if it will be a bit higher priced.
Fell hook line and sinker. The desire for more processing power, usb 3, and gigabit networking is very strong. I already dreamed up applications for the dream machine, multiple usb cameras, NAS to name just a few.
What it has made do is to search for other boards ie the Parallella and consider using this to fill the gap.
What a prat I feel ,I did think the diagonal taskbar Odd but still fell for it. Ah well a Pi 2 will have to join my 2 existing Pis.
Why atmega ???
use an stm32 or nxp17xx please
avr is so slow , lazy & bad mcu 🙁
It was an April Fools’ joke. 🙂
