pre-order.  I didn't know of this new RAM size before seeing the ad.<br>
Estimated availability date is June 5.<br>
<br>
<<a href="https://www.seeedstudio.com/Raspberry-Pi-4-Computer-Model-B-8GB-p-4595.html" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.seeedstudio.com/Raspberry-Pi-4-Computer-Model-B-8GB-p-4595.html</a>><br>
<br>
US$75 for a computer with 8G seems quite reasonable.<br>
<br>
Being greedy, the only Pi 4's I've purchased have been 4G units.  I<br>
will probably only buy 8G units in the future.  I admit that 2G is<br>
enough for many purposes.<br>
<br>
8G certainly makes a 64-bit OS more desireable.  I think that Raspbian<br>
is still only 32 bits (so that all Pi's are still supported by one<br>
image, I think).<br>
<br>
Seeed is an interesting "maker" sort of vendor.  I have ordered a couple <br>
of Pi 4's from them in the past.  I consider them reputable.  Slowish <br>
delivery (from China).  They do have a warehouse in the US too.<br>

This says that the Foundation has started working on 64-bit Raspbian.<br>
64-bit Ubuntu and other distros are already available now.<br>
