Very interesting stuff for a school or club but $300 is way too steep for
me for what it does. I like the idea that the Pi can do full monitor
display but in practice I use mine as servers and connect over the network
for administrative tasks.

When the Pi was launched the idea was bring your own hardware since most
people already have a monitor, keyboard and mouse. With a $300 solution
like they are overshooting the cost of off the shelf hardware like the HP
Stream or most Chromebooks and putting themselves in novelty territory.
