Cool, but I don't think I could get away with marketing a raspberry pi as a "quantum computer" because its bits change suddenly, discretely, and without intermediate steps.

Like it or not, "quantum" has accumulated a) more connotations that make it less likely to be interpreted as "sudden or discrete" by most people, and b) an association with other pseudosciency buzzwords that don't have a very good reputation in product names.
