Well, i’d ditch that one for it’s power consumption (65w tdp is like a lot for a server) but that may not be an issue to you. Situations differ, needs differ. I had a quick look around at eBay and the like where I am and all I could get for that price was a crappy i3 4xxx or comparable, so you might see why the raspberry is a good offer to me.
That’s why I’m against flat-out “yeah, the pi is not worth it” or “the pi is the bee’s knees” statements. It’s a tool among many and ought to be used as such and I dislike when there is this mob mentality pro or Contra anything. The pi has it’s uses and there are.many cases where it’s not the ideal option. I’ll never recommend the pi or anything else flat out.
