Likely 2 very, very different markets either company are shooting for, as John said.  The RaspberryPi folks are doing a teaching board IMHO, where as the nVidia guys are most certainly shooting for something a lot more mainstream.  Doubt either product will step on each others toes in the least.


I was at a talk by one of their founder recently.

Rasberry PI is produced by a charity, not a company.  They did it to get kids interested in programming.  If someone else comes along that does the same it's not competition - they'll actually be happy about it.
