Raspberry Pi: Nearly 4 million sold | TechCrunch
“Sales of low cost, open source microcomputer have now passed 3.8 million, according to the Pi Foundation. And while that pales in comparison to sales of consumer electronic devices such as smartphones, it’s a seriously impressive figure for a bare chunk of electronics, especially given the creators of Pi envisaged selling as few as 10,000 boards over its entire lifetime.”

Maybe this will get the attention of chip vendors who are still ignoring the parts market for education and hobbyists.
