P.S. The "cartridge" idea is an interesting one. Of course, the software would
be Free Software and people could easily enough clone or copy the cards, but
the purchase price would of course be covering things like convenience,
trust, support and authenticity rather than a "per-kilogram price" on the
code.
Hmm... well how popular have freedom limited,low spec rasbpi's been?...
Perhaps there is hope. If the price was right down to say £30 at least
better chance at £15-20 then 12-3 year olds and games could work? Help
get kids into programming. Then magically be able to do NN#2 with usb
host, 2 miro sd card slots and networking (wifi and/or bluetooth) :).
now I'm dreaming...
...but then there are dumpphones, which... are no good for leaning on
due to one not owning them, No root rights. though there is openphoenux
pocket computer phone @ 500$ or was it Euro? Get the interest up and
price down and well what does that mean for a NN "cartridges"?... I
guess the market would be those that can't afford £100 pocket computer
phone.
