But they went public with it on May 2011 and made their decisions based on that. You're ignoring the fact that they are a well funded startup with industry ties to large chip manufactures.
What's wrong with my comment history and why do you feel you need to reduce yourself to ad hominem?
I already stated my point. That his article is an advertisement and offers no new information and doesn't belong on HN, and that Raspberry Pi is being falsely modest about their success because they have a lot of resources.
If you think an article is not best for HN, flag it and move on. Personally I found it to contain plenty of interesting information. Funding should by no means make you take success for granted, it is idiotic to think otherwise.
Your comment history looks like the comment history of a troll. I'm probably wasting my time here.
