Quiz Of The Week: Happy Birthday Raspberry Pi!

It wouldn’t be an exaggeration to call the Raspberry Pi a massive British success story. First released four years ago, millions of units have been sold around the world and the credit-card sized computer has gone from strength to strength this week with the launch of the Raspberry Pi 3.
