Raspberry Pi OS Raspbian Updated with Support for the New Raspberry Pi 3 B+ SBC

Probably the most important feature of the new Raspbian release, which is powered by the Linux 4.9.80 LTS kernel, is support for the recently launched Raspberry Pi 3 B+ single-board computer that Raspberry Pi Foundation unveiled this morning in celebration of the Pi Day.

This feature offers multiple present options, which can be set through the Appearance Settings panel and the PIXEL doubling option in Raspberry Pi Configuration.
