The first batch of Raspberry Pi computers are being issued to users.
A group of schoolchildren in Leeds are the first to get their hands on production models of the bare-bones computer.
Costing only £16, the tiny computer has been designed to inspire anyone, especially children, to get started with computer programming.
Eager fans who were the first to order a machine should get their Raspberry Pi by 20 April.
Since the Raspberry Pi project began, the plan has garnered huge interest from developers, hobbyists and others keen to get their hands on a cheap, easy-to-use computer.
Delivery of the first batch of production machines has been delayed twice - once because the wrong component was soldered on to circuit boards and a second time thanks to confusion about electromagnetic testing.
