Raspberry Pi PCB Layout Revealed

An anonymous reader writes "Yesterday, the final Raspberry Pi printed circuit board (PCB) layout was revealed. The word 'packed' comes to mind as this is one very complicated looking board. The reason for that is just how much Raspberry Pi has strived to save money on the machine by using complex routing to keep things small and cheap. The Raspberry Pi team don't believe the design is going to change again unless they missed something. With that in mind, they revealed the final board is exactly the same size as a credit card, measuring 85.65 x 53.98mm."

How am I going to use this computer without a screen and keyboard?
I demand a credit card sized keyboard and screen!

Is that a "whooosh" I hear?

He's probably on AT&T - he won't hear anything.

Slashdot has become an RSS feed for the Raspberry Pi blog

Yes, how dare a site that claims to be 'news of nerds' cover a project to build a cheap computer designed to be interesting for school-aged nerds to play with? I demand more Apple stories, and political news!
