		</div><p>A faster model of the “best-selling UK computer ever” has been released at a cost of £30.<br />
The Raspebrry Pi 3 has been launched, containing a 64-bit processor to make its performance 50% better than the previous model, to celebrate the company’s fourth birthday.</p>
<p>The credit card-sized gadget has built-in wi-fi and Bluetooth which enable users to link their devices, such as smartphones and tablets, together in a single hub.</p>
<p>A model was recently sent to the International Space Station with Tim Peake.<br />
The Raspberry Pi is a tiny single-board device that plugs into a computer monitor or TV, and uses a standard keyboard and mouse.</p>
<p>It has all the capabilities of a desktop: going online; playing high-definition video and games; and making spreadsheets and word-processing.</p>
<p>Project founder Eben Upton said: “This is the first Pi you can stick behind your TV and completely forget about.”</p>
<p>As children and hobbyists quickly learn how to use the cheap gadget, it has reportedly become the most popular computer built in Britain.</p>
<p>Upton said the Raspberry Pi has sold more than eight million units, overtaking Amstrad PCW’s record.</p>
<p>“We’re calling it, we’re the best-selling UK computer ever,” Upton said.</p>
<p>A “few hundred thousand” units are being sold online at element14, RS Components and other resellers.</p>
<p>Developed in Cambridge and manufactured in Pencoed, South Wales, the computer was originally designed to help introduce people to programming and is now used in education and industry.</p>
