Hi Richard,
The Pis typically have M2.5 holes whereas most desktop machines have M3
holes and posts.
Although you can find these on Amazon (search for "raspberry pi standoffs")
I found a couple of my Pis were every so slightly smaller. You can either
hand drill out the holes or in my case I bought 6BA studding and nuts. The
old British Association sizes has 6BA being 2.3mm. (5BA is just too large
at 2.65mm.
Regards
John
