The day after Jeff Geerling interviewed Eben Upton, co-founder of Raspberry Pi, he went to the Sony UK Technology Centre in Pencoed, Wales to tour the factory where almost every Raspberry Pi has been made—50,000,000 of them (as of this month!).

I got to snap a picture with the milestone Pis:

  • 1 million on September 30, 2013
  • 5 million on September 23, 2015
  • 10 million on September 8, 2016

And it looks like they’re set to hit the 50 million milestone any day now. In a strange turn of events, it doesn’t look like it’ll land in September this time!
